tracing/events: Add module tracepoints
Add trace points to trace module_load, module_free, module_get, module_put and module_request, and use trace_event facility to get the trace output. Here's the sample output: TASK-PID CPU# TIMESTAMP FUNCTION | | | | | <...>-42 [000] 1.758380: module_request: fb0 wait=1 call_site=fb_open ... <...>-60 [000] 3.269403: module_load: scsi_wait_scan <...>-60 [000] 3.269432: module_put: scsi_wait_scan call_site=sys_init_module refcnt=0 <...>-61 [001] 3.273168: module_free: scsi_wait_scan ... <...>-1021 [000] 13.836081: module_load: sunrpc <...>-1021 [000] 13.840589: module_put: sunrpc call_site=sys_init_module refcnt=-1 <...>-1027 [000] 13.848098: module_get: sunrpc call_site=try_module_get refcnt=0 <...>-1027 [000] 13.848308: module_get: sunrpc call_site=get_filesystem refcnt=1 <...>-1027 [000] 13.848692: module_put: sunrpc call_site=put_filesystem refcnt=0 ... modprobe-2587 [001] 1088.437213: module_load: trace_events_sample F modprobe-2587 [001] 1088.437786: module_put: trace_events_sample call_site=sys_init_module refcnt=0 Note: - the taints flag can be 'F', 'C' and/or 'P' if mod->taints != 0 - the module refcnt is percpu, so it can be negative in a specific cpu Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> LKML-Reference: <4A891B3C.5030608@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
