2009-03-04tracing: remove extra latency_trace method from trace structureSteven Rostedt
Impact: clean up The trace and latency_trace function pointers are identical for every tracer but the function tracer. The differences in the function tracer are trivial (latency output puts paranthesis around parent). This patch removes the latency_trace pointer and all prints will now just use the trace output function pointer. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
2009-02-04trace: make the trace_event callbacks return enum print_line_tArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
As they actually all return these enumerators. Reported-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Acked-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-02-03trace: Change struct trace_event callbacks parameter listArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Impact: API change The trace_seq and trace_entry are in trace_iterator, where there are more fields that may be needed by tracers, so just pass the tracer_iterator as is already the case for struct tracer->print_line.

2009-02-03trace: better manage the context info for eventsFrederic Weisbecker
Impact: make trace_event more convenient for tracers All tracers (for the moment) that use the struct trace_event want to have the context info printed before their own output: the pid/cmdline, cpu, and timestamp. But some other tracers that want to implement their trace_event callbacks will not necessary need these information or they may want to format them as they want. This patch adds a new default-enabled trace option: TRACE_ITER_CONTEXT_INFO When disabled through: echo nocontext-info > /debugfs/tracing/trace_options The pid, cpu and timestamps headers will not be printed. IE with the sched_switch tracer with context-info (default): bash-2935 [001] 100.356561: 2935:120:S ==> [001] 0:140:R <idle> <idle>-0 [000] 100.412804: 0:140:R + [000] 11:115:S events/0 <idle>-0 [000] 100.412816: 0:140:R ==> [000] 11:115:R events/0 events/0-11 [000] 100.412829: 11:115:S ==> [000] 0:140:R <idle> Without context-info: 2935:120:S ==> [001] 0:140:R <idle> 0:140:R + [000] 11:115:S events/0 0:140:R ==> [000] 11:115:R events/0 11:115:S ==> [000] 0:140:R <idle> A tracer can disable it at runtime by clearing the bit TRACE_ITER_CONTEXT_INFO in trace_flags. The print routines were renamed to trace_print_context and trace_print_lat_context, so that they can be used by tracers if they want to use them for one of the trace_event callbacks.

2009-01-16trace: add gcc printf check to trace_seq_printfSteven Rostedt
Andrew Morton suggested adding a printf checker to trace_seq_printf since there are a number of users that have improper format arguments. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2009-01-16ftrace: fix trace_outputLai Jiangshan
Impact: fix bug for handling partial line trace_seq_printf(), seq_print_userip_objs(), ... return 0 -- partial line was written other(>0) -- success duplicate output is also removed in trace_print_raw().

2008-12-29ftrace: change trace.c to use registered eventsSteven Rostedt
Impact: rework trace.c to use new event register API Almost every ftrace event has to implement its output display in trace.c through a different function. Some events did not handle all the formats (trace, latency-trace, raw, hex, binary), and this method does not scale well. This patch converts the format functions to use the event API to find the event and and print its format. Currently, we have a print function for trace, latency_trace, raw, hex and binary. A trace_nop_print is available if the event wants to avoid output on a particular format. Perhaps other tracers could use this in the future (like mmiotrace and function_graph).

2008-12-29ftrace: set up trace event hash infrastructureSteven Rostedt
Impact: simplify/generalize/refactor trace.c The trace.c file is becoming more difficult to maintain due to the growing number of events. There is several formats that an event may be printed. This patch sets up the infrastructure of an event hash to allow for events to register how they should be printed.
