The dynamic ftrace ops startup test currently fails on Thumb-2 kernels:

 Testing tracer function: PASSED
 Testing dynamic ftrace: PASSED
 Testing dynamic ftrace ops #1: (0 0 0 0 0) FAILED!

This is because while the addresses in the mcount records do not have
the zero bit set, the IP reported by the mcount call does have it set
(because it is copied from the LR).  This mismatch causes the ops
filtering in ftrace_ops_list_func() to not call the relevant tracers.

Fix this by clearing the zero bit while adjusting the LR for the mcount
instruction size.  Also, combine the mov+sub into a single sub
instruction.

You're conflating two different things here:

1) convert the branch pointer in lr into the corresponding instruction
address in memory

2) subtract MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE


(1) Is an ARM architectural thing and not secific to ftrace in any way,
so I suggest we make that generic and factor it out.

For example, kprobes.c has:


121:void __kprobes arch_arm_kprobe(struct kprobe *p)
122:{
123:	uintptr_t addr = (uintptr_t)p->addr & ~1; /* Remove any Thumb flag */

166:int __kprobes __arch_disarm_kprobe(void *p)
167:{
[...]
169-#ifdef CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL
170:	u16 *addr = (u16 *)((uintptr_t)kp->addr & ~1);


Whether is makes sense to make that all generic for assembler or not,
you can avoid the conditionality by writing:

.macro mcount_size_adjust rd, rn
	bic	\rd , \rn , #1			@ clear the Thumb bit if present
	sub	\rd , \rd , #MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE
.endm

This adjustment will be correct regardless of the instruction set.


Otherwise, this looks sensible.

The dynamic ftrace ops startup test currently fails on Thumb-2 kernels:

 Testing tracer function: PASSED

 Testing dynamic ftrace ops #1: (0 0 0 0 0) FAILED!

This is because while the addresses in the mcount records do not have

(because it is copied from the LR).  This mismatch causes the ops
filtering in ftrace_ops_list_func() to not call the relevant tracers.

Fix this by clearing the zero bit before adjusting the LR for the mcount
instruction size.  Also, combine the mov+sub into a single sub
instruction.

I'm probably not going to have a lot of time to test this; in the
meantime, I'm satisfied that you addressed my concerns, so
