[PATCH 0/9] tracing: Bug fixes and minor cleanup

[Tom Zanussi]

Hi,

This is a set of small fixes and cleanup patches that were originally
part of V2 of the inter-event tracing patchset, along with 2 of Steve
Rostedt's patches related to that patchset.

The 'tracing: Steve's unofficial trace_recursive_lock() patch' patch
is from Steve but not signed off on - he has a replacement under test
that should replace this.

The 'tracing: Reverse the order of trace_types_lock and event_mutex'
is an official patch from Steve, included here for convenience.

The rest are bugfixes and cleanups from the old V2 inter-event
patchset, separated out since they're standalone improvements that can
stand on their own outside of the inter-event patches.

Thanks,

Tom

I've been planing on changing that lock, which may help you here
without having to mess around with parameters. That is to simply add a
counter. Would this patch help you. You can add a patch to increment
the count to 5 with an explanation of handling synthetic events, but
even getting to 4 is extremely unlikely.

I'll make this into an official patch if this works for you, and then
you can include it in your series.

[PATCH 2/9] tracing: Reverse the order of trace_types_lock and event_mutex

[Tom Zanussi]

From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

In order to make future changes where we need to call
tracing_set_clock() from within an event command, the order of
trace_types_lock and event_mutex must be reversed, as the event command
will hold event_mutex and the trace_types_lock is taken from within
tracing_set_clock().

[PATCH 3/9] tracing: Exclude 'generic fields' from histograms

[Tom Zanussi]

There are a small number of 'generic fields' (comm/COMM/cpu/CPU) that
are found by trace_find_event_field() but are only meant for
filtering.  Specifically, they unlike normal fields, they have a size
of 0 and thus wreak havoc when used as a histogram key.

Exclude these (return -EINVAL) when used as histogram keys.

[PATCH 4/9] tracing: Remove lookups from tracing_map hitcount

[Tom Zanussi]

Lookups inflate the hitcount, making it essentially useless.  Only

[PATCH 6/9] tracing: Make traceprobe parsing code reusable

[Tom Zanussi]

traceprobe_probes_write() and traceprobe_command() actually contain
nothing that ties them to kprobes - the code is generically useful for
similar types of parsing elsewhere, so separate it out and move it to
trace.c/trace.h.

Other than moving it, the only change is in naming:
traceprobe_probes_write() becomes trace_parse_run_command() and
traceprobe_command() becomes trace_run_command().

[PATCH 7/9] tracing: Clean up hist_field_flags enum

[Tom Zanussi]

As we add more flags, specifying explicit integers for the flag values
becomes more unwieldy and error-prone - switch them over to left-shift
values.

[PATCH 8/9] tracing: Add hist_field_name() accessor

[Tom Zanussi]

In preparation for hist_fields that won't be strictly based on
trace_event_fields, add a new hist_field_name() accessor to allow that
flexibility and update associated users.

[PATCH 9/9] tracing: Reimplement log2

[Tom Zanussi]

log2 as currently implemented applies only to u64 trace_event_field
derived fields, and assumes that anything it's applied to is a u64
field.

To prepare for synthetic fields like latencies, log2 should be
applicable to those as well, so take the opportunity now to fix the
current problems as well as expand to more general uses.

log2 should be thought of as a chaining function rather than a field
type.  To enable this as well as possible future function
implementations, add a hist_field operand array into the hist_field
definition for this purpose, and make use of it to implement the log2
'function'.
