ftrace: dynamic enabling/disabling of function calls
This patch adds a feature to dynamically replace the ftrace code with the jmps to allow a kernel with ftrace configured to run as fast as it can without it configured. The way this works, is on bootup (if ftrace is enabled), a ftrace function is registered to record the instruction pointer of all places that call the function. Later, if there's still any code to patch, a kthread is awoken (rate limited to at most once a second) that performs a stop_machine, and replaces all the code that was called with a jmp over the call to ftrace. It only replaces what was found the previous time. Typically the system reaches equilibrium quickly after bootup and there's no code patching needed at all. e.g. call ftrace /* 5 bytes */ is replaced with jmp 3f /* jmp is 2 bytes and we jump 3 forward */ 3: When we want to enable ftrace for function tracing, the IP recording is removed, and stop_machine is called again to replace all the locations of that were recorded back to the call of ftrace. When it is disabled, we replace the code back to the jmp. Allocation is done by the kthread. If the ftrace recording function is called, and we don't have any record slots available, then we simply skip that call. Once a second a new page (if needed) is allocated for recording new ftrace function calls. A large batch is allocated at boot up to get most of the calls there. Because we do this via stop_machine, we don't have to worry about another CPU executing a ftrace call as we modify it. But we do need to worry about NMI's so all functions that might be called via nmi must be annotated with notrace_nmi. When this code is configured in, the NMI code will not call notrace.

ftrace: trace preempt off critical timings
Add preempt off timings. A lot of kernel core code is taken from the RT patch latency trace that was written by Ingo Molnar. This adds "preemptoff" and "preemptirqsoff" to /debugfs/tracing/available_tracers Now instead of just tracing irqs off, preemption off can be selected to be recorded. When this is selected, it shares the same files as irqs off timings. One can either trace preemption off, irqs off, or one or the other off. By echoing "preemptoff" into /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer, recording of preempt off only is performed. "irqsoff" will only record the time irqs are disabled, but "preemptirqsoff" will take the total time irqs or preemption are disabled. Runtime switching of these options is now supported by simpling echoing in the appropriate trace name into /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer.

ftrace: trace irq disabled critical timings
This patch adds latency tracing for critical timings (how long interrupts are disabled for). "irqsoff" is added to /debugfs/tracing/available_tracers Note: tracing_max_latency also holds the max latency for irqsoff (in usecs). (default to large number so one must start latency tracing) tracing_thresh threshold (in usecs) to always print out if irqs off is detected to be longer than stated here. If irq_thresh is non-zero, then max_irq_latency is ignored.

ftrace: latency tracer infrastructure
This patch adds the latency tracer infrastructure. This patch does not add anything that will select and turn it on, but will be used by later patches. If it were to be compiled, it would add the following files to the debugfs: The root tracing directory: /debugfs/tracing/ This patch also adds the following files: available_tracers list of available tracers. Currently no tracers are available. Looking into this file only shows "none" which is used to unregister all tracers. current_tracer The trace that is currently active. Empty on start up. To switch to a tracer simply echo one of the tracers that are listed in available_tracers: example: (used with later patches) echo function > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer To disable the tracer: echo disable > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer tracing_enabled echoing "1" into this file starts the ftrace function tracing (if sysctl kernel.ftrace_enabled=1) echoing "0" turns it off. latency_trace This file is readonly and holds the result of the trace. trace This file outputs a easier to read version of the trace. iter_ctrl Controls the way the output of traces look. So far there's two controls: echoing in "symonly" will only show the kallsyms variables without the addresses (if kallsyms was configured) echoing in "verbose" will change the output to show a lot more data, but not very easy to understand by humans. echoing in "nosymonly" turns off symonly. echoing in "noverbose" turns off verbose.

ftrace: add basic support for gcc profiler instrumentation
If CONFIG_FTRACE is selected and /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled is set to a non-zero value the ftrace routine will be called everytime we enter a kernel function that is not marked with the "notrace" attribute. The ftrace routine will then call a registered function if a function happens to be registered. [ This code has been highly hacked by Steven Rostedt and Ingo Molnar, so don't blame Arnaldo for all of this ;-) ] Update: It is now possible to register more than one ftrace function. If only one ftrace function is registered, that will be the function that ftrace calls directly. If more than one function is registered, then ftrace will call a function that will loop through the functions to call.
