Enable the kernel to trace every kernel function. This is done
|
|
by using a compiler feature to insert a small, 5-byte No-Operation
|
|
instruction to the beginning of every kernel function, which NOP
|
|
sequence is then dynamically patched into a tracer call when
|
|
tracing is enabled by the administrator. If it's runtime disabled
|
|
(the bootup default), then the overhead of the instructions is very

small and not measurable even in micro-benchmarks.

This tracer helps developers to optimize boot times: it records
|
|
the timings of the initcalls and traces key events and the identity
|
|
of tasks that can cause boot delays, such as context-switches.
|
|
|
|
Its aim is to be parsed by the /scripts/bootgraph.pl tool to
|
|
produce pretty graphics about boot inefficiencies, giving a visual
|
|
representation of the delays during initcalls - but the raw
|
|
/debug/tracing/trace text output is readable too.
|
|
|
|
( Note that tracing self tests can't be enabled if this tracer is
|
|
selected, because the self-tests are an initcall as well and that
|
|
would invalidate the boot trace. )

This traces the events of likely and unlikely condition

"Trace likely/unlikely profiler" is that this is not a

histogram of the callers, but actually places the calling

events into a running trace buffer to see when and where the

events happened, as well as their results.

help
|
|
This special tracer records the maximum stack footprint of the
|
|
kernel and displays it in debugfs/tracing/stack_trace.
|
|
|
|
This tracer works by hooking into every function call that the
|
|
kernel executes, and keeping a maximum stack depth value and
|
|
stack-trace saved. Because this logic has to execute in every
|
|
kernel function, all the time, this option can slow down the
|
|
kernel measurably and is generally intended for kernel
|
|
developers only.

This option will modify all the calls to ftrace dynamically

with a No-Op instruction) as they are called. A table is

created to dynamically enable them again.

This way a CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER kernel is slightly larger, but otherwise
|
|
has native performance as long as no tracing is active.
|
|
|
|
The changes to the code are done by a kernel thread that
|
|
wakes up once a second and checks to see if any ftrace calls
|
|
were made. If so, it runs stop_machine (stops all CPUS)
|
|
and modifies the code to jump over the call to ftrace.
