tracing: add a tracer to catch execution time of kernel functions
Impact: add new tracing plugin which can trace full (entry+exit) function calls
This tracer uses the low level function return ftrace plugin to
measure the execution time of the kernel functions.
The first field is the caller of the function, the second is the
measured function, and the last one is the execution time in
nanoseconds.
- v3:
- HAVE_FUNCTION_RET_TRACER have been added. Each arch that support ftrace return
should enable it.
- ftrace_return_stub becomes ftrace_stub.
- CONFIG_FUNCTION_RET_TRACER depends now on CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER
- Return traces printing can be used for other tracers on trace.c
- Adapt to the new tracing API (no more ctrl_update callback)
- Correct the check of "disabled" during insertion.
- Minor changes...
