Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] ftrace: add tracepoint for timer
This patch is modify from Mathieu's patch base on Ingo's suggestion, the
original patch can be found here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123791201816247&w=2
Great thanks to Thomas for giving me so many valuable advices.
Those tracepoints are wanted and useful:
1: We can detect a timer's delay
2: We can monitor the lifecycle and behaviors of a timer
Thus they help in analysing and debuging.
Example ftrace output:
insmod-1712 [000] 145.901459: timer_init: timer=d0ace4b4
insmod-1712 [000] 145.901469: timer_start: timer=d0ace4b4 func=timer_fun expires=4294813629 timeout=199
<idle>-0 [000] 146.100230: timer_cancel: timer=d0ace4b4
<idle>-0 [000] 146.100233: timer_expire: timer=d0ace4b4 jiffies=4294813629
<idle>-0 [000] 146.100627: timer_callback_done: func=d0ace4b4
We expect the timer expires at 4294813629, after 199 jiffies, actually the
timer expires at 4294813629, so it is delayed by 0 jiffies.
We also realize the timer's callback started at 146.100233, and it finished
at 146.100627, so it's taking 146.100627-146.100233=0.4ms.
Changelog:
v1->v2:
1: Add jiffies info into timer
2: Combine debugobjects and trace as Thomas's suggestion
v2->v3:
1: Remove function address from timer_expire and timer_cancel
as Thomas's suggestion
2: Remove debug_and_trace_timer_expire() as Thomas's suggestion
3: Rename trace_timer_entry() and trace_timer_exit() to match this patch
