Subject: [PATCH 2/9 - v2][RFC] tracing: Let tracepoints have data passed to tracepoint callbacks
Date: Mon, 03 May 2010 23:40:47 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100504034201.896240097@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20100504034045.085822814@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0002-tracing-Let-tracepoints-have-data-passed-to-tracepoi.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 16979 bytes --]

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

This patch allows data to be passed to the tracepoint callbacks
if the tracepoint was created to do so.

The DECLARE_TRACE() now adds two new functions:

	register_trace_mytracepoint_data()
	unregister_trace_mytracepoint_data()

These two are the same as the original

	register_trace_mytracepoint()
	unregister_trace_mytracepoint()

But now allow you to pass a private data pointer that will
be passed to the callback handle. For example:

DECLARE_TRACE(mytracepoint, int value, value);

will create a function called trace_mytracepoint()

	void trace_mytracepoint(int value);

If the user wants to pass data to register a function to this tracepoint
and have data also passed to this callback, they can use:

	int mycallback(int value, void *data);

	register_trace_mytracepoint_data(mycallback, mydata);

Then the mycallback() will receive the "mydata" as the parameter after
the args.

A more detailed example:

  DECLARE_TRACE(mytracepoint, TP_PROTO(int status), TP_ARGS(status));

  /* In the C file */

  DEFINE_TRACE(mytracepoint, TP_PROTO(int status), TP_ARGS(status));

  [...]

       trace_mytacepoint(status);

  /* In a file registering this tracepoint */

  int my_callback(int status, void *data)
  {
	struct my_struct my_data = data;
	[...]
  }

  [...]
	my_data = kmalloc(sizeof(*my_data), GFP_KERNEL);
	init_my_data(my_data);
	register_trace_mytracepoint_data(my_callback, my_data);

The same callback can also be registered to the same tracepoint as long
as the data registered is the different. Note, the data must also be used
to unregister the callback:

	unregister_trace_mytracepoint_data(my_callback, my_data);

Because of the data parameter, tracepoints declared this way can not have
no args. That is:

  DECLARE_TRACE(mytracepoint, TP_PROTO(void), TP_ARGS());

will cause an error.

If no arguments are needed, a new macro can be used instead:

  DECLARE_TRACE_NOARGS(mytracepoint);

Since there are no arguments, the proto and args fields are left out.

This is part of a series to make the tracepoint footprint smaller:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
5788186	1337252	9351592	16477030	 fb6b66	vmlinux.orig
5792282	1333796	9351592	16477670	 fb6de6	vmlinux.class
5793448	1333780	9351592	16478820	 fb7264	vmlinux.tracepoint

Again, this patch also increases the size of the kernel, but
lays the ground work for decreasing it.

 v2: Made the DECLARE_TRACE() have the ability to pass arguments
     and added a new DECLARE_TRACE_NOARGS() for tracepoints that
     do not need any arguments.
