From 0f4814065ff8c24ca8bfd75c9b73502be152c287 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Metzger Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2009 16:43:48 +0200 Subject: x86, ptrace: add bts context unconditionally Add the ptrace bts context field to task_struct unconditionally. Initialize the field directly in copy_process(). Remove all the unneeded functionality used to initialize that field.

The current method to add a new tracepoint into an existing system is to write the trace point macro in the trace header with one of the macros TRACE_EVENT, TRACE_FORMAT or DECLARE_TRACE, then they must add the same named item into the C file with the macro DEFINE_TRACE(name) and then add the trace point. This change cuts out the needing to add the DEFINE_TRACE(name). Every file that uses the tracepoint must still include the trace/.h file, but the one C file must also add a define before the including of that file. #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS #include This will cause the trace/mytrace.h file to also produce the C code necessary to implement the trace point. Note, if more than one trace/.h is used to create the C code it is best to list them all together. #define CREATE_TRACE_POINTS #include #include #include Thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers and Christoph Hellwig for coming up with the cleaner solution of the define above the includes over my first design to have the C code include a "special" header. This patch converts sched, irq and lockdep and skb to use this new method.

This is because the function graph tracer will replace the real return address with a call to the tracing of the exit function. This initialization happens in fork, but it happens too late. If fork fails, then it will call free_task and that calls the freeing of this ret_stack. But before initialization happens, the new (failed) task points to its parents ret_stack. If a fork failure happens during the function trace, it would be catastrophic for the parent. Also, there's no need to call ftrace_graph_exit_task from fork, since it is called by free_task which fork calls on failure.

Change the code to check task_ptrace() != 0 instead. This is still racy, but the race is harmless. We can race with another tracer attaching to this child, or the tracer can exit and detach in parallel. But giwen that we didn't do wake_up_new_task() yet, the child must have the pending SIGSTOP anyway.
