2016-08-23ftrace: kprobe: uprobe: Show u8/u16/u32/u64 types in decimalMasami Hiramatsu
Change kprobe/uprobe-tracer to show the arguments type-casted with u8/u16/u32/u64 in decimal digits instead of hexadecimal. To minimize compatibility issue, the arguments without type casting are typed by x64 (or x32 for 32bit arch) by default. Note: all arguments set by old perf probe without types are shown in decimal by default.

2016-06-20tracing: expose current->comm to [ku]probe eventsOmar Sandoval
ftrace is very quick to give up on saving the task command line (see `trace_save_cmdline()`). The workaround for events which really care about the command line is to explicitly assign it as part of the entry. However, this doesn't work for kprobe events, as there's no straightforward way to get access to current->comm. Add a kprobe/uprobe event variable $comm which provides exactly that.

2011-07-15tracing/kprobes: Support module init function probingMasami Hiramatsu
To support probing module init functions, kprobe-tracer allows user to define a probe on non-existed function when it is given with a module name. This also enables user to set a probe on a function on a specific module, even if a same name (but different) function is locally defined in another module. The module name must be in the front of function name and separated by a ':'. e.g. btrfs:btrfs_init_sysfs Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20110627072656.6528.89970.stgit@fedora15 Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2011-04-24sched: Get rid of lock_depthJonathan Corbet
Neil Brown pointed out that lock_depth somehow escaped the BKL removal work. Let's get rid of it now. Note that the perf scripting utilities still have a bunch of code for dealing with common_lock_depth in tracepoints; I have left that in place in case anybody wants to use that code with older kernels.

2011-02-07tracing/kprobes: Add bitfield typeMasami Hiramatsu
Add bitfield type for tracing arguments on kprobe-tracer. The syntax of a bitfield type is: b<bit-size>@<bit-offset>/<container-size> e.g. Accessing 2 bits-width field with 4 bits-offset in 32 bits-width data at 4 bytes offseted from the address pointed by AX register: +4(%ax):b2@4/32 Since the width of container data depends on the arch, so I just added the container-size at the end.

Support string type tracing and printing in kprobe-tracer. This allows user to trace string data in kernel including __user data. Note that sometimes __user data may not be accessed if it is paged-out (sorry, but kprobes operation should be done in atomic, we can not wait for page-in).

Support basic types of integer (u8, u16, u32, u64, s8, s16, s32, s64) in kprobe tracer. With this patch, users can specify above basic types on each arguments after ':'. If omitted, the argument type is set as unsigned long (u32 or u64, arch-dependent). e.g. echo 'p account_system_time+0 hardirq_offset=%si:s32' > kprobe_events adds a probe recording hardirq_offset in signed-32bits value on the entry of account_system_time.

The main goal is to avoid conflicts between local variable names of probed functions, used by perf probe, and special variables used in the kprobe event creation interface (stack values, etc...) and also available from perf probe. ie: we don't want rv (return value) to conflict with a local variable named rv in a probed function.

2009-09-17tracing/kprobes: Disable kprobe events by default after creationMasami Hiramatsu
Disable newly created kprobe events by default, not to disturb another user using ftrace. "Disturb" means when someone is using ftrace and another user tries to use perf-tools, (in near future) if he defines new kprobe event via perf-tools, then new events will mess up the frace buffer. Fix this to allow proper and transparent kprobes events concurrent usage between ftrace users and perf users.
