Impact: fix section mismatch warning in kernel/profile.c
Here, profile_nop function has been called from a non-init function
create_hash_tables(void). Which generetes a section mismatch warning.
Previously, create_hash_tables(void) was a init function. So, removing
__init from create_hash_tables(void) requires profile_nop to be
non-init.
This patch makes profile_nop function inline and fixes the
following warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x6ebb6): Section mismatch in reference from
the function create_hash_tables() to the function
.init.text:profile_nop()
The function create_hash_tables() references
the function __init profile_nop().
This is often because create_hash_tables lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of profile_nop is wrong.

Impact: API *CHANGE*. Must update all tracepoint users.
Add DEFINE_TRACE() to tracepoints to let them declare the tracepoint
structure in a single spot for all the kernel. It helps reducing memory
consumption, especially when declaring a lot of tracepoints, e.g. for
kmalloc tracing.
*API CHANGE WARNING*: now, DECLARE_TRACE() must be used in headers for
tracepoint declarations rather than DEFINE_TRACE(). This is the sane way
to do it. The name previously used was misleading.

Impact: make output of available_filter_functions complete
phenomenon:
The first value of dyn_ftrace_total_info is not equal with
`cat available_filter_functions | wc -l`, but they should be equal.
root cause:
When printing functions with seq_printf in t_show, if the read buffer
is just overflowed by current function record, then this function
won't be printed to user space through read buffer, it will
just be dropped. So we can't see this function printing.
So, every time the last function to fill the read buffer, if overflowed,
will be dropped.
This also applies to set_ftrace_filter if set_ftrace_filter has
more bytes than read buffer.
fix:
Through checking return value of seq_printf, if less than 0, we know
this function doesn't be printed. Then we decrease position to force
this function to be printed next time, in next read buffer.
Another little fix is to show correct allocating pages count.

This patch adds the support for dynamic tracing on the function return tracer.
The whole difference with normal dynamic function tracing is that we don't need
to hook on a particular callback. The only pro that we want is to nop or set
dynamically the calls to ftrace_caller (which is ftrace_return_caller here).
Some security checks ensure that we are not trying to launch dynamic tracing for
return tracing while normal function tracing is already running.
An example of trace with getnstimeofday set as a filter:
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (2283 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1396 ns)
ktime_get_ts+0x22/0x50 -> getnstimeofday (1382 ns)

A tracer must return 0 on success and a traditional error (ie:

Impact: allow archs more flexibility on dynamic ftrace implementations
Dynamic ftrace has largly been developed on x86. Since x86 does not
have the same limitations as other architectures, the ftrace interaction
between the generic code and the architecture specific code was not
flexible enough to handle some of the issues that other architectures
have.
Most notably, module trampolines. Due to the limited branch distance
that archs make in calling kernel core code from modules, the module
load code must create a trampoline to jump to what will make the
larger jump into core kernel code.
The problem arises when this happens to a call to mcount. Ftrace checks
all code before modifying it and makes sure the current code is what
it expects. Right now, there is not enough information to handle modifying
module trampolines.
This patch changes the API between generic dynamic ftrace code and
the arch dependent code. There is now two functions for modifying code:
ftrace_make_nop(mod, rec, addr) - convert the code at rec->ip into
a nop, where the original text is calling addr. (mod is the
module struct if called by module init)
ftrace_make_caller(rec, addr) - convert the code rec->ip that should
be a nop into a caller to addr.
The record "rec" now has a new field called "arch" where the architecture
can add any special attributes to each call site record.

Impact: let module functions be recorded when dyn ftrace not enabled
When dynamic ftrace had a daemon and a hash to record the locations
of mcount callers at run time, the recording needed to stop when
ftrace was disabled. But now that the recording is done at compile time
and the ftrace_record_ip is only called at boot up and when a module
is loaded, we no longer need to check if ftrace_enabled is set.
In fact, this breaks module load if it is not set because we skip
over module functions.

Impact: better handling of CPU buffer start annotation
Because of the confusion with the per CPU buffers wrapping where
one CPU might be more active at the end of the trace than the other
CPUs causing that one CPU to have a shorter history. Kernel
developers were confused by the "missing" data of that one CPU
at the beginning of the trace output. An annotation was added to
the trace output to show that the buffer had started:
# tracer: function
#
# TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
# | | | | |
##### CPU 3 buffer started ####
<idle>-0 [003] 158.192959: smp_apic_timer_interrupt
[...]
<idle>-0 [003] 161.556520: default_idle
##### CPU 1 buffer started ####
<idle>-0 [001] 161.592494: hrtimer_force_reprogram
[etc]
But this annotation gets a bit messy when tracers do not fill the
buffers. This patch does a couple of things:
One) it adds a flag to trace_options to disable these annotations
Two) it does not annotate if the tracer did not overflow its buffer.
This makes the output much cleaner.

names it "buffer_size_kb" (thanks to Arjan van de Ven for this idea).

As you can see by the above, there's a bit of work to do in rethinking
the use of some unlikelys and likelys. Note: the unlikely case had 71 hits
that were more than 25%.
Note: After submitting my first version of this patch, Andrew Morton
showed me a version written by Daniel Walker, where I picked up
the following ideas from:
1) Using __builtin_constant_p to avoid profiling fixed values.
2) Using __FILE__ instead of instruction pointers.
3) Using the preprocessor to stop all profiling of likely
annotations from vsyscall_64.c.
Thanks to Andrew Morton, Arjan van de Ven, Theodore Tso and Ingo Molnar
for their feed back on this patch.
(*) Not ever unlikely is recorded, those that are used by vsyscalls
(a few of them) had to have profiling disabled.

Impact: deadlock fix in ring_buffer_read_start
The ring_buffer_iter_reset was called from ring_buffer_read_start
where both grabbed the reader_lock.
This patch separates out the internals of ring_buffer_iter_reset
to its own function so that both APIs may grab the reader_lock.

Impact: disable preemption when calling sched_clock()
The ring_buffer_time_stamp still uses sched_clock as its counter.
But it is a bug to call it with preemption enabled. This requirement
should not be pushed to the ring_buffer_time_stamp callers, so
the ring_buffer_time_stamp needs to disable preemption when calling
sched_clock.

Impact: Cleanups on the boot tracer and ftrace
This patch bring some cleanups about the boot tracer headers. The
functions and structures of this tracer have nothing related to ftrace
and should have so their own header file.

Impact: Restructure WARN_ONs in ring_buffer.c
The current WARN_ON macros in ring_buffer.c are quite ugly.
This patch cleans them up and uses a single RB_WARN_ON that returns
the value of the condition. This allows the caller to abort the
function if the condition is true.
