2009-03-02tracing: make CALLER_ADDRx overwriteableUwe Kleine-Koenig
The current definition of CALLER_ADDRx isn't suitable for all platforms. E.g. for ARM __builtin_return_address(N) doesn't work for N > 0 and AFAIK for powerpc there are no frame pointers needed to have a working __builtin_return_address. This patch allows defining the CALLER_ADDRx macros in <asm/ftrace.h> and let these take precedence. Because now <asm/ftrace.h> is included unconditionally in <linux/ftrace.h> all archs that don't already had this include get an empty one for free.

2009-03-02tracing: add TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL to record complex entriesSteven Rostedt
Tom Zanussi pointed out that the simple TRACE_FIELD was not enough to record trace data that required memcpy. This patch addresses this issue by adding a TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL. The format is similar to TRACE_FIELD but looks like so: TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL(type_item, item, cmd) What TRACE_FIELD gave was: TRACE_FIELD(type, item, assign) The TRACE_FIELD would be used in declaring a structure: struct { type item; }; And later assign it via: entry->item = assign; What TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL gives us is: In the declaration of the structure: struct { type_item; }; And the assignment: cmd; This change log will explain the one example used in the patch: TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT(sched_switch, TPPROTO(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *prev, struct task_struct *next), TPARGS(rq, prev, next), TPFMT("task %s:%d ==> %s:%d", prev->comm, prev->pid, next->comm, next->pid), TRACE_STRUCT( TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, prev_pid, prev->pid) TRACE_FIELD(int, prev_prio, prev->prio) TRACE_FIELD_SPECIAL(char next_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN], next_comm, TPCMD(memcpy(TRACE_ENTRY->next_comm, next->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN))) TRACE_FIELD(pid_t, next_pid, next->pid) TRACE_FIELD(int, next_prio, next->prio) ), TPRAWFMT("prev %d:%d ==> next %s:%d:%d") ); The struct will be create as: struct { pid_t prev_pid; int prev_prio; char next_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; pid_t next_pid; int next_prio; }; Note the TRACE_ENTRY in the cmd part of TRACE_SPECIAL. TRACE_ENTRY will be set by the tracer to point to the structure inside the trace buffer. entry->prev_pid = prev->pid; entry->prev_prio = prev->prio; memcpy(entry->next_comm, next->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN); entry->next_pid = next->pid; entry->next_prio = next->prio Reported-by: Tom Zanussi <tzanussi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

2009-02-28tracing: move trace point formats to files in include/trace directorySteven Rostedt
Impact: clean up To further facilitate the ease of adding trace points for developers, this patch creates include/trace/trace_events.h and include/trace/trace_event_types.h. The former file will hold the trace/<type>.h files and the latter will hold the trace/<type>_event_types.h files. To create new tracepoints and to have them automatically appear in the event tracer, a developer makes the trace/<type>.h file which includes <linux/tracepoint.h> and the trace/<type>_event_types.h file. The trace/<type>_event_types.h file will hold the TRACE_FORMAT macros. Then add the trace/<type>.h file to trace/trace_events.h, and add the trace/<type>_event_types.h to the trace_event_types.h file. No need to modify files elsewhere.

2009-02-208250: fix boot hang with serial console when using with Serial Over Lan portMauro Carvalho Chehab
Intel 8257x Ethernet boards have a feature called Serial Over Lan. This feature works by emulating a serial port, and it is detected by kernel as a normal 8250 port. However, this emulation is not perfect, as also noticed on changeset 7500b1f602aad75901774a67a687ee985d85893f. Before this patch, the kernel were trying to check if the serial TX is capable of work using IRQ's. This were done with a code similar this: serial_outp(up, UART_IER, UART_IER_THRI); lsr = serial_in(up, UART_LSR); iir = serial_in(up, UART_IIR); serial_outp(up, UART_IER, 0); if (lsr & UART_LSR_TEMT && iir & UART_IIR_NO_INT) up->bugs |= UART_BUG_TXEN; This works fine for other 8250 ports, but, on 8250-emulated SoL port, the chip is a little lazy to down UART_IIR_NO_INT at UART_IIR register. Due to that, UART_BUG_TXEN is sometimes enabled. However, as TX IRQ keeps working, and the TX polling is now enabled, the driver miss-interprets the IRQ received later, hanging up the machine until a key is pressed at the serial console. This is the 6 version of this patch. Previous versions were trying to introduce a large enough delay between serial_outp and serial_in(up, UART_IIR), but not taking forever. However, the needed delay couldn't be safely determined. At the experimental tests, a delay of 1us solves most of the cases, but still hangs sometimes. Increasing the delay to 5us was better, but still doesn't solve. A very high delay of 50 ms seemed to work every time. However, poking around with delays and pray for it to be enough doesn't seem to be a good approach, even for a quirk. So, instead of playing with random large arbitrary delays, let's just disable UART_BUG_TXEN for all SoL ports.

2009-02-20slab: introduce kzfree()Johannes Weiner
kzfree() is a wrapper for kfree() that additionally zeroes the underlying memory before releasing it to the slab allocator. Currently there is code which memset()s the memory region of an object before releasing it back to the slab allocator to make sure security-sensitive data are really zeroed out after use. These callsites can then just use kzfree() which saves some code, makes users greppable and allows for a stupid destructor that isn't necessarily aware of the actual object size.
