[PATCH 2/6] ftracetest: Add functions file that holds helper functions

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0002-ftracetest-Add-functions-file-that-holds-helper-func.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2094 bytes --]

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

Created the file tools/testing/ftrace/test.d/functions that will
hold helper functions.

Current helper functions include:

 Add clear_trace() helper to reset the trace file

   Used as a descriptive name to show that "echo > trace" is clearing
   the trace file.

 Add disable/enable_tracing() helper calls

   Add calls that disable and enable tracing respectively by echoing
   0 or 1 into tracing_on.

 Add helper reset_tracer() function

    Add a helper function reset_tracer() that will clear the current_tracer
    (echo nop > current_tracer).

[PATCH 3/6] ftracetest: Add a couple of ftrace test cases

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0003-ftracetest-Add-a-couple-of-ftrace-test-cases.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 7376 bytes --]

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

Added three test cases to get the feel of adding tests to ftracetest.
The three cases are:

  function profiling test, to make sure function profiling still works
   with function tracing (was a regression)

  function graph filter test to make sure that function graph filtering works.

  function graph filter with stack tracing test to make sure that the function
   graph filter does filter and also continues to filter when another function tracer
   is running (like the stack tracer)

[PATCH 4/6] ftracetest: Use logfile name supported by busyboxs mktemp

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0004-ftracetest-Use-logfile-name-supported-by-busybox-s-m.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2129 bytes --]

From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

When I run the ftracetest in a busybox docker container, I saw
following error.  Make the logfile template to comply with busybox's
mktemp.  It also keep the logfiles under the logs directory.

  # /linux/tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/ftracetest
  === Ftrace unit tests ===
  mktemp: unrecognized option `--tmpdir=/linux/tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/logs/20141106-003624/'
  BusyBox v1.22.1 (2014-05-22 23:22:11 UTC) multi-call binary.

  Usage: mktemp [-dt] [-p DIR] [TEMPLATE]

  Create a temporary file with name based on TEMPLATE and print its name.
  TEMPLATE must end with XXXXXX (e.g. [/dir/]nameXXXXXX).
  Without TEMPLATE, -t tmp.XXXXXX is assumed.

  	-d	  Make directory, not file
  	-q	  Fail silently on errors
  	-t	  Prepend base directory name to TEMPLATE
  	-p DIR	  Use DIR as a base directory (implies -t)
  	-u Do not create anything; print a name

  Base directory is: -p DIR, else $TMPDIR, else /tmp

  [1] Basic trace file check/linux/tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/ftracetest: line 244: can't create : nonexistent directory
  /linux/tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/ftracetest: line 244: can't create : nonexistent directory

[PATCH 5/6] ftracetest: Clear trace buffer after running kprobe testcases

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0005-ftracetest-Clear-trace-buffer-after-running-kprobe-t.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3458 bytes --]

From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org>

The kprobe testcases create, use and delete dynamic events during the
test but didn't clear the trace buffer so it'll leave the result after
it finishes.
