2009-05-18powerpc/ftrace: Fix constraint to be early clobberSteven Rostedt
After upgrading my distcc boxes from gcc 4.2.2 to 4.4.0, the function graph tracer broke. This was discovered on my x86 boxes. The issue is that gcc used the same register for an output as it did for an input in an asm statement. I first thought this was a bug in gcc and reported it. I was notified that gcc was correct and that the output had to be flagged as an "early clobber". I noticed that powerpc had the same issue and this patch fixes it.

2009-05-18powerpc/ftrace: Use pr_devel() in ftrace.cMichael Ellerman
pr_debug() can now result in code being generated even when #DEBUG is not defined. That's not really desirable in the ftrace code which we want to be snappy.

Commit bb7253403f7a4670a128e4c080fd8ea1bd4d5029 ("powerpc64, ftrace: save toc only on modules for function graph"), added an #if CONFIG_PPC64. This changes it to #ifdef.

2009-02-23powerpc: Unify opcode definitions and supportKumar Gala
Create a new header that becomes a single location for defining PowerPC opcodes used by code that is either generationg instructions at runtime (fixups, debug, etc.), emulating instructions, or just compiling instructions old assemblers don't know about. We currently don't handle the floating point emulation or alignment decode as both are better handled by the specific decode support they already have. Added support for the new dcbzl, dcbal, msgsnd, tlbilx, & wait instructions since older assemblers don't know about them.

2009-02-23powerpc, ftrace: use create_branch lib functionSteven Rostedt
Impact: clean up, remove duplicate code When ftrace was first ported to PowerPC, there existed a create_function_call that would create the instruction to make a call to a given address. Unfortunately, this call expected to write to the address it was given, and since it used the address to calculate the offset, it could not be faked. ftrace needed a way to create the instruction without actually writing that instruction to the text section. So ftrace had to implement its own code. Now we have create_branch in the code patching library, which does exactly what ftrace needs. This patch replaces ftrace's implementation with the library function. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2009-02-23powerpc, ftrace: use unsigned int for instruction manipulationSteven Rostedt
The original port of ftrace to PowerPC kept a lot of the code used by x86. Some of this code was to handle x86's 5 byte instruction. This was handled by using character arrays to manipulate the code. PowerPC has a consistent 4 byte instruction. Using unsigned ints makes the code more efficient as well as more readable. By converting to use unsigned ints to represent instructions, I was able to remove the side effects that were needed for manipulating character strings. i.e. memcpy and memcmp Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

2009-02-23powerpc64, ftrace: save toc only on modules for function graphSteven Rostedt
The TOCS used by modules are different than the one used by the core kernel code. The function graph tracer must save and restore the TOC whenever it traces a module call. But this is an added overhead to burden the majority of core kernel code being traced. Benjamin Herrenschmidt suggested in testing the entry of the call to tell if it is a core kernel function or a module. He recommended using the REGION_ID() macro to perform this test. This patch implements Benjamin's idea, and uses a different return_to_handler routine dependent on if the entry is a core kernel function or not. The module version saves the TOC, where as the core kernel version does not. Geoff Lavand tested on PS3.

2009-02-23powerpc64: port of the function graph tracerSteven Rostedt
This is a port of the function graph tracer that was written by Frederic Weisbecker for the x86. This only works for PPC64 at the moment and only for static tracing. PPC32 and dynamic function graph tracing support will come later. The trace produces a visual calling of functions: # tracer: function_graph # # CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS # | | | | | | | 0) 2.224 us | } 0) ! 271.024 us | } 0) ! 320.080 us | } 0) ! 324.656 us | } 0) ! 329.136 us | } 0) | .put_prev_task_fair() { 0) | .update_curr() { 0) 2.240 us | .update_min_vruntime(); 0) 6.512 us | } 0) 2.528 us | .__enqueue_entity(); 0) + 15.536 us | } 0) | .pick_next_task_fair() { 0) 2.032 us | .__pick_next_entity(); 0) 2.064 us | .__clear_buddies(); 0) | .set_next_entity() { 0) 2.672 us | .__dequeue_entity(); 0) 6.864 us | } Geoff Lavand tested on PS3.

2009-02-23ftrace, powerpc: replace debug macro with proper pr_deugSteven Rostedt

Impact: fix dynamic ftrace with large modules in PPC64 The math to calculate the offset into the TOC that is taken from reading the trampoline is incorrect. The bottom half of the offset is a signed extended short. The current code was using an OR to create the offset when it should have been using an addition.

Impact: Allow 64 bit PowerPC to trace modules with dynamic ftrace This adds code to handle the PPC64 module trampolines, and allows for PPC64 to use dynamic ftrace. Thanks to Paul Mackerras for these updates: - fix the mod and rec->arch.mod NULL checks. - fix to is_bl_op compare.

Record the address of the mcount call-site. Currently all archs except sparc64 record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some general cleanups are entailed.
