Subject: [for-next][PATCH 08/15] tracing: Use in_serving_softirq() to deduct softirq status.
Date: Wed, 03 Feb 2021 11:05:25 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210203160549.825691017@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20210203160517.982448432@goodmis.org

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

PREEMPT_RT does not report "serving softirq" because the tracing core
looks at the preemption counter while PREEMPT_RT does not update it
while processing softirqs in order to remain preemptible. The
information is stored somewhere else.
The in_serving_softirq() macro and the SOFTIRQ_OFFSET define are still
working but not on the preempt-counter.

Use in_serving_softirq() macro which works on PREEMPT_RT. On !PREEMPT_RT
the compiler (gcc-10 / clang-11) is smart enough to optimize the
in_serving_softirq() related read of the preemption counter away.
The only difference I noticed by using in_serving_softirq() on
!PREEMPT_RT is that gcc-10 implemented tracing_gen_ctx_flags() as
reading FLAG, jmp _tracing_gen_ctx_flags(). Without in_serving_softirq()
it inlined _tracing_gen_ctx_flags() into tracing_gen_ctx_flags().
