Hi Steven,
Need your help.
1. The following code wouldn't trace anything by the command 'sudo
python3 /usr/share/bcc/tools/trace netdev_core_stats_inc'
+void netdev_core_stats_inc(struct net_device *dev, u32 offset)
+{
+ /* This READ_ONCE() pairs with the write in netdev_core_stats_alloc() */
+ struct net_device_core_stats __percpu *p = READ_ONCE(dev->core_stats);
+ unsigned long __percpu *field;
+
+ if (unlikely(!p)) {
+ p = netdev_core_stats_alloc(dev);
+ if (!p)
+ return;
+ }
+ field = (__force unsigned long __percpu *)((__force void *)p + offset);
+ this_cpu_inc(*field);
+}
+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(netdev_core_stats_inc);
2. If I add a 'pr_info("\n");', it would be fine. The 'pr_info("\n");' can be changed to others.
+void netdev_core_stats_inc(struct net_device *dev, u32 offset)
+{
+ /* This READ_ONCE() pairs with the write in netdev_core_stats_alloc() */
+ struct net_device_core_stats __percpu *p = READ_ONCE(dev->core_stats);
+ unsigned long __percpu *field;
+
+ if (unlikely(!p)) {
+ p = netdev_core_stats_alloc(dev);
+ if (!p)
+ return;
+ }
+ pr_info("\n");
+ field = (__force unsigned long __percpu *)((__force void *)p + offset);
+ this_cpu_inc(*field);
+}
+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(netdev_core_stats_inc);
I don't know why we need to add something in netdev_core_stats_inc, the trace will be fine.
