[PATCH 1/8] ksym_tracer: Extract trace entry from struct trace_ksym

[Li Zefan]

struct trace_ksym is used as an entry in hbp list, and is also
used as trace_entry stored in ring buffer.

This is not necessary and is a waste of memory in ring buffer.

There is also a bug that dereferencing field->ksym_hbp in
ksym_trace_output() can be invalid.

[PATCH 2/8] ksym_tracer: Rewrite ksym_trace_filter_read()

[Li Zefan]

Reading ksym_trace_filter gave me some arbitrary characters,
when it should show nothing. It's because buf is not initialized
when there's no filter.

Also reduce stack usage by about 512 bytes.

[PATCH 6/8] ksym_tracer: Report error when failed to re-register hbp

[Li Zefan]

When access type is changed, the hw break point will be
unregistered and then be registered again with new access
type. But the registration may fail, in this case, -errno
should be returned.

[PATCH 8/8] ksym_tracer: Fix the output of stat tracing

[Li Zefan]

- make ksym_tracer_stat_start() return head->first instead of
  &head->first
- make the output properly aligned

Before:

   Access type                Symbol                     Counter
     NA                   <NA>                              0
     RW                   pid_max                               0

After:

  Access Type   Symbol                                       Counter
  -----------   ------                                       -------
  RW            pid_max                                            0

Ah, I did not realized that the cmdline was that roughly saved.
It would be more ring-buffer-friendly to use tracing_record_cmdline.

Thanks guys, i've applied it to tip:tracing/hw-breakpoints. Not yet 
merged into tracing/core - we also want to see how the perfcounters 
angle plays out before committing this for v2.6.32.

I started noticing this behaviour recently.

A simple
char buf[KSYM_FILTER_ENTRY_LEN * KSYM_TRACER_MAX] = "\0";
solves the problem.

The stack usage would be much lesser on other architectures with fewer
breakpoint registers (like PPC64), and should really be an issue.

Given that this change uses the tracer defined functions and a seq-file
implementation, the patch is welcome.

Hi,
	Sorry for the delayed response (just back from a week-long
vacation)..the patches do a fine-job of fixing the issues that escaped
attention during development.

ksym_tracer: Extract trace entry from struct trace_ksym

struct trace_ksym is used as an entry in hbp list, and is also
used as trace_entry stored in ring buffer.

This is not necessary and is a waste of memory in ring buffer.

There is also a bug that dereferencing field->ksym_hbp in
ksym_trace_output() can be invalid.

ksym_tracer: Rewrite ksym_trace_filter_read()

Reading ksym_trace_filter gave me some arbitrary characters,
when it should show nothing. It's because buf is not initialized
when there's no filter.

Also reduce stack usage by about 512 bytes.

ksym_tracer: Report error when failed to re-register hbp

When access type is changed, the hw break point will be
unregistered and then be registered again with new access
type. But the registration may fail, in this case, -errno
should be returned.

ksym_tracer: Fix memory leak

- When remove a filter, we leak entry->ksym_hbp->info.name.

- With CONFIG_FTRAC_SELFTEST enabled, we leak ->info.name:
    # echo ksym_tracer > current_tracer
    # echo 'ksym_selftest_dummy:rw-' > ksym_trace_filter
    # echo nop > current_tracer

ksym_tracer: Fix the output of stat tracing

- make ksym_tracer_stat_start() return head->first instead of
  &head->first
- make the output properly aligned

Before:

   Access type                Symbol                     Counter
     NA                   <NA>                              0
     RW                   pid_max                               0

After:

  Access Type   Symbol                                       Counter
  -----------   ------                                       -------
  RW            pid_max                                            0
