This series of patches aims to simplify the mcount address adjustment for
ftrace. The frace code wants to know the start address of each function,
not the address of the relocation against the mcount symbol which have
been recorded to the __mcount_loc section. The ftrace_call_adjust function
is used to calculate the start address of the function from the mcount
relocation at runtime.
For x86, ia64 and s390 the adjustment is a constant offset. There is no
need to do the adjustment at runtime, it can be done by recordmcount at
compile time. Blackfin already does this with the mcount_adjust variable
in the pearl version of recordmcount. After teaching the C version of
recordmcount about mcount_adjust x86, ia64 and s390 can be converted to
a nop ftrace_call_adjust function.
That leaves arm as the last remaining architecture with a non trivial
ftrace_call_adjust function. There the least significant bit is removed
from the address with an and operation. The comment says this is done
for Thumb-2. This implies that for Thumb-1 the offset is 0 and for
Thumb-2 the offset is -1, correct? If there is a way to distinguish
the two targets in recordmcount at compile time we could convert arm
as well. Which would allow us to remove the ftrace_call_adjust function.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
Introduce mcount_adjust{,_32,_64} to the C implementation of
recordmcount analog to $mcount_adjust in the perl script.
The adjustment is added to the address of the relocations
against the mcount symbol. If this adjustment is done by
recordmcount at compile time the ftrace_call_adjust function
can be turned into a nop.

I'm not sure how to test it - but it looks somewhat suspect.
The difficulty is in the way that ia64 tools report program addresses within bundles.
ia64 crams 3 41-bit instructions (and a 5-bit template) into a 16-byte "bundle".
Some tools report consecutive addresses like this:
0x000
0x001
0x002
0x010
0x011
0x012
where the low nibble is the instruction number within the bundle. Others go
for:
0x000
0x006
0x00c
0x010
0x016
0x01c
with the illusion that instructions take 6-byte, 6bytes, 4-bytes.
This patch does some fast and loose translation from hex (0x12) in the kernel
to decimal (18) in the user tools ... which doesn't look like it fits with
either of these conventions.

All the patch does is to move an address calculation from the kernel "addr-0x12"
to user space by subtracting the constant offset from the addend value for the
relocation: "addend = _w(_w(relp->r_offset) - recval + mcount_adjust)".
The offset for ia64 is -18. I'd be very surprised if the outcome of the move
would yield a different end result. But as I took another look at the patch
I noticed a bug, for EM_IA64 we need to set mcount_adjust_64 and not
mcount_adjust_32 as it is a 64-bit architecture. New patch below.
I tried to do a test compile with/without the patch but with the latest git
kernels TRACING_SUPPORT depends on TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT which is missing
for ia64. No luck ..

How hard would it be to add TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT. That should allow
for including not only tracing, but also lockdep.
Although, I may be able to make function tracing work without it.

ARM supports building the kernel using either the ARM instruction set or
the Thumb-2 instruction set. The kernel cannot be built with the
"Thumb-1" instruction set (btw usually referred to as just Thumb).
Thumb-2 via recordmcount.pl needs the clearing of the lsb because the
relocation (R_ARM_ABS32) that gets used for the assembly file
that recordmcount.pl generates and assembles dictates that the lsb be
set if the target symbol is Thumb/Thumb-2 function. mcount_adjust would
not help here since the ORing is done later, when the relocation is
applied.
Thumb-2 via recordmcount.c does not need the clearing of the lsb in
ftrace_call_adjust.
Building with the ARM instruction set also does not need the clearing
of the lsb.

To remove ftrace_call_adjust, we could either deprecate the
recordmcount.pl usage for ARM (you already have to edit the Kconfig to
use it) or modify it to generate specific relocations explicitly instead
of using the assembler data directives.

Hmm, from what I can make out the C version of recordmcount uses R_ARM_ABS32
as well.

So the clearing of the lsb is only required if the recordmcount.pl script
is used?

Who does the ORing? I can't find anything in recordmount.pl/recordmcount.c
which looks like doing an OR, does the assembler do that based on the
symbol type?

Hmm, it would be a desirable property if the C version and the pearl
version of recordmcount would do the same. Or we could remove the arm
support from the pearl script, the C version is faster anyway.

Right. It worked when I initially implemented ARM support there because
recordmcount.c always found the STT_SECTION symbol as a base and not a
STT_FUNC symbol. However, I noticed yesterday that this does not happen
in some cases, so I sent a patch to avoid STT_FUNC symbol as bases on
ARM, not because of this relocation, but because of a slightly different
oddity of Thumb symbols:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2011/5/11/304
(The relocation problem alone could be solved by using R_ARM_ABS32_NOI
instead.)

The lsb is set to 1 by the linker, when it applies the relocations as it
links vmlinux.

I'm OK with removing the ARM support from recordmcount.pl; it doesn't
seem needed to make significant modifications to it for ARM when we
don't use it anyway.

Is there any reason why the recordmcount.pl would ever be used now that the
C implementation exists?
I notice that arch/arm/Kconfig has:
config ARM
...
select HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT
so deprecating ARM support from recordmcount.pl seems unlikely to hurt
anyone.
The C implementation seems to have worked fine when I was testing dynamic
ftrace with Thumb-2 recently.

It's there only as a backup. But you're right. I may as well start
removing the recordmcount.pl support from those that have the
HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT set, and then all users are gone (which may now be
the case) either keep it around as a backup for testing against
recordmcount.c, or remove it completely.
