Subject: [for-linus][PATCH 02/11] tracing: Make sure trace_printk() can output as soon as it can be used
Date: Wed, 25 Jan 2023 11:18:26 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230125162010.016206071@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20230125161824.332648375@goodmis.org
From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Currently trace_printk() can be used as soon as early_trace_init() is
called from start_kernel(). But if a crash happens, and
"ftrace_dump_on_oops" is set on the kernel command line, all you get will
be:
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 347519us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 353141us : Unknown type 6
[ 0.456075] <idle>-0 0dN.2. 358684us : Unknown type 6
This is because the trace_printk() event (type 6) hasn't been registered
yet. That gets done via an early_initcall(), which may be early, but not
early enough.
Instead of registering the trace_printk() event (and other ftrace events,
which are not trace events) via an early_initcall(), have them registered at
the same time that trace_printk() can be used. This way, if there is a
crash before early_initcall(), then the trace_printk()s will actually be
useful.
