From: Steven Rostedt This patch adds the "format" file to the trace point event directory. This is based off of work by Tom Zanussi, in which a file is exported to be tread from user land such that a user space app may read the binary record stored in the ring buffer. # cat /debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format field:pid_t prev_pid; offset:12; size:4; field:int prev_prio; offset:16; size:4; field special:char next_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:20; size:16; field:pid_t next_pid; offset:36; size:4; field:int next_prio; offset:40; size:4; Idea-from: Tom Zanussi Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt --- kernel/trace/trace.h | 1 + kernel/trace/trace_events.c | 56 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- kernel/trace/trace_events_stage_2.h | 52 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ kernel/trace/trace_events_stage_3.h | 2 + 4 files changed, 110 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/trace/trace.h b/kernel/trace/trace.h index cf6ba41..e606633 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/trace.h +++ b/kernel/trace/trace.h @@ -754,6 +754,7 @@ struct ftrace_event_call { int (*raw_init)(void); int (*raw_reg)(void); void (*raw_unreg)(void); + int (*show_format)(struct trace_seq *s); }; void event_trace_printk(unsigned long ip, const char *fmt, ...); diff --git a/kernel/trace/trace_events.c b/kernel/trace/trace_events.c index 26069fa..d57a772 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/trace_events.c +++ b/kernel/trace/trace_events.c @@ -3,6 +3,9 @@ * * Copyright (C) 2008 Red Hat Inc, Steven Rostedt * + * - Added format output of fields of the trace point. + * This was based off of work by Tom Zanussi . + * */ #include @@ -444,6 +447,42 @@ event_available_types_read(struct file *filp, char __user *ubuf, size_t cnt, return simple_read_from_buffer(ubuf, cnt, ppos, buf, r); } +static ssize_t +event_format_read(struct file *filp, char __user *ubuf, size_t cnt, + loff_t *ppos) +{ + struct ftrace_event_call *call = filp->private_data; + struct trace_seq *s; + char *buf; + int r; + + s = kmalloc(sizeof(*s), GFP_KERNEL); + if (!s) + return -ENOMEM; + + trace_seq_init(s); + + if (*ppos) + return 0; + + r = call->show_format(s); + if (!r) { + /* + * ug!
