Subject: [PATCH 2/6] blktrace: fix blk_probes_ref chaos
Date: Fri, 27 Mar 2009 10:20:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49CC37D9.6030201@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <49CC37AA.3060908@cn.fujitsu.com>

ioctl-based blktrace allocates bt and registers tracepoints when
ioctl(BLKTRACESETUP), and do all cleanups when ioctl(BLKTRACETEARDOWN).

while ftrace-based blktrace allocates/frees bt when:
  # echo 1/0 > /sys/block/sda/sda1/trace/enable

and registers/unregisters tracepoints when:
  # echo blk/nop > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
or
  # echo 1/0 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_enable

The separatation of allocation and registeration causes 2 problems:
  1. current user-space blktrace still calls ioctl(TEARDOWN) when
     ioctl(SETUP) failed:
       # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/sda1/trace/enable
       # blktrace /dev/sda
         BLKTRACESETUP: Device or resource busy
         ^C
     and now blk_probes_ref == -1

  2. Another way to make blk_probes_ref == -1:
     # plugin sdb && mount sdb1
     # echo 1 > /sys/block/sdb/sdb1/trace/enable
     # remove sdb

This patch does the allocation and registeration when writing
sdaX/trace/enable.
