tracing: Fix kmemleak in instance_rmdir

2017-07-20T13:24:25+00:00

Hit the kmemleak when executing instance_rmdir, it forgot releasing
mem of tracing_cpumask. With this fix, the warn does not appear any
more.

tracing: Fixup trace file header alignment

2017-07-11T20:48:19+00:00

The addition of TGID to the tracing header added a check to see if TGID
shoudl be displayed or not, and updated the header accordingly.
Unfortunately, it broke the default header.

Also add constant strings to use for spacing. This does remove the
visibility of the header a bit, but cuts it down from the extended lines
much greater than 80 characters.

Pull Kselftest updates from Shuah Khan:
 "This update consists of:

   - TAP13 framework and changes to some tests to convert to TAP13.
     Converting kselftest output to standard format will help identify
     run to run differences and pin point failures easily. TAP13 format
     has been in use for several years and the output is human friendly.

     Please find the specification:
       https://testanything.org/tap-version-13-specification.html

     Credit goes to Tim Bird for recommending TAP13 as a suitable
     format, and to Grag KH for kick starting the work with help from
     Paul Elder and Alice Ferrazzi

     The first phase of the TAp13 conversion is included in this update.
     Future updates will include updates to rest of the tests.

   - Masami Hiramatsu fixed ftrace to run on 4.9 stable kernels.

   - Kselftest documnetation has been converted to ReST format. Document
     now has a new home under Documentation/dev-tools.

   - kselftest_harness.h is now available for general use as a result of
     Mickaël Salaün's work.

   - Several fixes to skip and/or fail tests gracefully on older
     releases"

tracing: Attempt to record other information even if some fail

2017-07-07T13:11:34+00:00

In recent patches where we record comm and tgid at the same time, we skip
continuing to record if any fail. Fix that by trying to record as many things
as we can even if some couldn't be recorded. If any information isn't recorded,
then we don't set trace_taskinfo_save as before.

Currently we stop recording tgid for non-idle tasks when switching from/to idle
task since we treat that as a record failure. Fix that by treat recording of
tgid for idle task as a success.

tracing: Add saved_tgids file to show cached pid to tgid mappings

2017-07-06T14:11:53+00:00

Export the cached pid / tgid mappings in debugfs tracing saved_tgids file.
This allows user apps to translate the pids from a trace to their respective
thread group.

Example saved_tgids file with pid / tgid values separated by ' ':

  # cat saved_tgids
  1048 1048
  1047 1047

ftrace: Fix regression with module command in stack_trace_filter

2017-06-29T14:05:45+00:00

When doing the following command:

 # echo ":mod:kvm_intel" > /sys/kernel/tracing/stack_trace_filter

it triggered a crash.

This happened with the clean up of probes. It required all callers to the
regex function (doing ftrace filtering) to have ops->private be a pointer to
a trace_array. But for the stack tracer, that is not the case.

Allow for the ops->private to be NULL, and change the function command
callbacks to handle the trace_array pointer being NULL as well.
