Fnic Ctlr Path Trace utility is a tracing functionality built directly into fnic
driver to trace the control path frames like discovery, FLOGI request/reply,
PLOGI request/reply, link event etc. It will be one trace file for all fnics.
It will help us to debug and resolve the discovery and initialization related
issues in more convenient way. This trace information includes time stamp,
Host Number, Frame type, Frame Length and Frame. By default,64 pages are
allocated but we can change the number of allocated pages by module parameter
fnic_fc_trace_max_page. Each entry is of 256 byte and available entries are
depends on allocated number of pages. We can turn on or off the fnic control
path trace functionality by module paramter fc_trace_enable and/or reset the
trace contain by module paramter fc_trace_clear.

This feature gathers active and cumulative per fnic stats for io,
abort, terminate, reset, vlan discovery path and it also includes
various important stats for debugging issues. It also provided
debugfs and ioctl interface for user to retrieve these stats.
It also provides functionality to reset cumulative stats through
user interface.

Fnic Trace utility is a tracing functionality built directly into fnic driver
to trace events. The benefit that trace buffer brings to fnic driver is the
ability to see what it happening inside the fnic driver. It also provides the
capability to trace every IO event inside fnic driver to debug panics, hangs
and potentially IO corruption issues. This feature makes it easy to find
problems in fnic driver and it also helps in tracking down strange bugs in a
more manageable way. Trace buffer is shared across all fnic instances for
this implementation.
