Subject: [12/19] ftrace: function tracer
From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@...hat.com>
This is a simple trace that uses the ftrace infrastructure. It is
designed to be fast and small, and easy to use. It is useful to
record things that happen over a very short period of time, and
not to analyze the system in general.
Updates:
available_tracers
"function" is added to this file.
current_tracer
To enable the function tracer:
echo function > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
To disable the tracer:
echo disable > /debugfs/tracing/current_tracer
The output of the function_trace file is as follows
"echo noverbose > /debugfs/tracing/iter_ctrl"
preemption latency trace v1.1.5 on 2.6.24-rc7-tst

+ Enable the kernel to trace every kernel function. This is done
+ by using a compiler feature to insert a small, 5-byte No-Operation
+ instruction to the beginning of every kernel function, which NOP
+ sequence is then dynamically patched into a tracer call when
+ tracing is enabled by the administrator. If it's runtime disabled
+ (the bootup default), then the overhead of the instructions is very
+ small and not measurable even in micro-benchmarks.
