2009-03-05tracing: add format files for ftrace default entriesSteven Rostedt
Impact: allow user apps to read binary format of basic ftrace entries Currently, only defined raw events export their formats so a binary reader can parse them. There's no reason that the default ftrace entries can't export their formats. This patch adds a subsystem called "ftrace" in the events directory that includes the ftrace entries for basic ftrace recorded items. These only have three files in the events directory: type : printf available_types : printf format : format for the event entry For example: # cat /debug/tracing/events/ftrace/wakeup/format name: wakeup ID: 3 format: field:unsigned char type; offset:0; size:1; field:unsigned char flags; offset:1; size:1; field:unsigned char preempt_count; offset:2; size:1; field:int pid; offset:4; size:4; field:int tgid; offset:8; size:4; field:unsigned int prev_pid; offset:12; size:4; field:unsigned char prev_prio; offset:16; size:1; field:unsigned char prev_state; offset:17; size:1; field:unsigned int next_pid; offset:20; size:4; field:unsigned char next_prio; offset:24; size:1; field:unsigned char next_state; offset:25; size:1; field:unsigned int next_cpu; offset:28; size:4; print fmt: "%u:%u:%u ==+ %u:%u:%u [%03u]" Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
2009-03-05tracing: move print of event format to separate fileSteven Rostedt
Impact: clean up Move the macro that creates the event format file to a separate header. This will allow the default ftrace events to use this same macro to create the formats to read those events. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
