tracing: Add #undef to fix compile error

2017-03-18T11:09:57+00:00

commit bf7165cfa23695c51998231c4efa080fe1d3548d upstream.

There are several trace include files that define TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE.

Include several of them in the same .c file (as I currently have in
some code I am working on), and the compile will blow up with a
"warning: "TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE" redefined #define TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE syscalls"

Every other include file in include/trace/events/ avoids that issue
by having a #undef TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE before the #define; syscalls.h
should have one, too.

tracing: Allow raw syscall trace events for non privileged users

2010-11-18T13:37:43+00:00

This allows non privileged users to use the raw syscall trace events
for task bound tracing in perf.

It is safe because raw syscall trace events don't leak system wide
informations.

tracing: Separate raw syscall from syscall tracer

2009-11-25T19:20:06+00:00

The current syscall tracer mixes raw syscalls and real syscalls.

echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable
And we get these from the output:

(XXXX insteads "            grep-20914 [001] 588211.446347" .. etc)

XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: 80609a8, count: 7000)
XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (3, 80609a8, 7000, a, 1000, bfce8ef8)
XXXX: sys_read -> 0x138
XXXX: sys_exit: NR 3 = 312
XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: 8060ae0, count: 7000)
XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (3, 8060ae0, 7000, a, 1000, bfce8ef8)
XXXX: sys_read -> 0x138
XXXX: sys_exit: NR 3 = 312

There are 2 drawbacks here.
A) two almost identical records are saved in ringbuffer
   when a syscall enters or exits. (4 records for every syscall)
   This wastes precious space in the ring buffer.
B) the lines including "sys_enter/sys_exit" produces
   hardly any useful information for the output (no labels).

The user can use this method to prevent these drawbacks:
echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable
echo 0 > events/syscalls/sys_enter/enable
echo 0 > events/syscalls/sys_exit/enable

But this is not user friendly. So we separate raw syscall
from syscall tracer.

After this fix applied:
syscall tracer's output (echo 1 > events/syscalls/enable):

XXXX: sys_read(fd: 3, buf: bfe87d88, count: 200)
XXXX: sys_read -> 0x200
XXXX: sys_fstat64(fd: 3, statbuf: bfe87c98)
XXXX: sys_fstat64 -> 0x0
XXXX: sys_close(fd: 3)

raw syscall tracer's output (echo 1 > events/raw_syscalls/enable):

XXXX: sys_enter: NR 175 (0, bf92bf18, bf92bf98, 8, b748cff4, bf92bef8)
XXXX: sys_exit: NR 175 = 0
XXXX: sys_enter: NR 175 (2, bf92bf98, 0, 8, b748cff4, bf92bef8)
XXXX: sys_exit: NR 175 = 0
XXXX: sys_enter: NR 3 (9, bf927f9c, 4000, b77e2518, b77dce60, bf92bff8)

tracing: Create generic syscall TRACE_EVENTs

2009-08-25T22:41:48+00:00

This converts the syscall_enter/exit tracepoints into TRACE_EVENTs, so
you can have generic ftrace events that capture all system calls with
arguments and return values.  These generic events are also renamed to
sys_enter/exit, so they're more closely aligned to the specific
sys_enter_foo events.
