[for-next][PATCH 1/7] tracing: Kill destroy_preds() and destroy_file_preds()

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0001-tracing-Kill-destroy_preds-and-destroy_file_preds.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2679 bytes --]

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

destroy_preds() makes no sense.

The only caller, event_remove(), actually wants destroy_file_preds().
__trace_remove_event_call() does destroy_call_preds() which takes care
of call->filter.

And after the previous change we can simply remove destroy_preds() from
event_remove(), we are going to call remove_event_from_tracers() which
in turn calls remove_event_file_dir()->free_event_filter().

[for-next][PATCH 2/7] tracing: Kill destroy_call_preds()

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0002-tracing-Kill-destroy_call_preds.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2138 bytes --]

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

Remove destroy_call_preds(). Its only caller, __trace_remove_event_call(),
can use free_event_filter() and nullify ->filter by hand.

Perhaps we could keep this trivial helper although imo it is pointless, but
then it should be static in trace_events.c.

It seems that the only purpose of call_filter_disable() is to
make filter_disable() less clear and symmetrical, remove it.

[for-next][PATCH 4/7] tracing/uprobes: Kill the dead TRACE_EVENT_FL_USE_CALL_FILTER logic

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0004-tracing-uprobes-Kill-the-dead-TRACE_EVENT_FL_USE_CAL.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1352 bytes --]

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

alloc_trace_uprobe() sets TRACE_EVENT_FL_USE_CALL_FILTER for unknown
reason and this is simply wrong. Fortunately this has no effect because
register_uprobe_event() clears call->flags after that.

Kill both. This trace_uprobe was kzalloc'ed and we rely on this fact
anyway.

Remove ftrace_event_call->files. It has no users, and in fact even
the commit ae63b31e4d0e "tracing: Separate out trace events from
global variables" which added this member did not use it.

[for-next][PATCH 6/7] tracing: Change apply_subsystem_event_filter() paths to check file->system == dir

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0006-tracing-Change-apply_subsystem_event_filter-paths-to.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 5373 bytes --]

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

filter_free_subsystem_preds(), filter_free_subsystem_filters() and
replace_system_preds() can simply check file->system->subsystem and
avoid strcmp(call->class->system).

Better yet, we can pass "struct ftrace_subsystem_dir *dir" instead of
event_subsystem and just check file->system == dir.

Thanks to Namhyung Kim who pointed out that replace_system_preds() can
be changed too.

Cosmetic, but replace_preds() doesn't need/use "char *filter_string".
Remove it to microsimplify the code.
