[PATCH 0/2] riscv/ftrace: add WITH_DIRECT_CALLS support
From: Song Shuai
Date: Wed Nov 23 2022 - 09:21:29 EST
This series adds DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS support for RISC-V.
SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT and SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT_MULTI are also included
here as the samples for testing DIRECT_CALLS related interface.
First, select the DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS to provide
register_ftrace_direct[_multi] interfaces allowing user to register
the customed trampoline (direct_caller) as the mcount for one or
more target functions. And modify_ftrace_direct[_multi] are also
provided for modify direct_caller.
At the same time, the samples in ./samples/ftrace/ can be built
as kerenl module for testing these interfaces with SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT
and SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT_MULTI selected.
Second, to make the direct_caller and the other ftrace hooks
(eg. function/fgraph tracer, k[ret]probes) co-exist, a temporary register
are nominated to store the address of direct_caller in ftrace_regs_caller.
After the setting of the address direct_caller by direct_ops->func and
the RESTORE_REGS in ftrace_regs_caller, direct_caller will be jumped to
by the `jr` inst.
The following tests have been passed in my local qemu-riscv64 virt machine.
1. tests with CONFIG_FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST
2. tests of samples/ftrace/ftrace*.ko
3. manual tests with any combination of the following hooks
- function/function_graph tracer
- ftrace*.ko
- kprobe/kretprobe
For your reference, here is the log when function tracer, kretprobe and
ftrace-direct-too.ko co-hooks the handle_mm_fault function.
```
[root@stage4 tracing]# echo handle_mm_fault > set_ftrace_filter
[root@stage4 tracing]# echo 'r:myr handle_mm_fault' > kprobe_events
[root@stage4 tracing]# echo function > current_tracer
[root@stage4 tracing]# echo 1 > events/kprobes/myr/enable

```
Note1:
This series is based on (riscv/ftrace: make ftrace_caller call ftrace_graph_func)
in this repo -> https://github.com/guoren83/linux/commits/ftrace_fixup_v3 .
Note2:
The checkpatch.pl will output some warnings on this series, like this
```
WARNING: Prefer using '"%s...", __func__' to using 'my_direct_func2', this function's name, in a string
111: FILE: samples/ftrace/ftrace-direct-multi-modify.c:48:
+" call my_direct_func2\n"
```
The reason is that checkpatch depends on patch context providing the
function name. In the above warning, my_direct_func2 has some codeline
distance with the changed trunk, so its declaration doesn't come into
the patch, and then the warning jumps out.
You may notice the location of `my_ip` variable changes in the 2nd patch.
I did that for reducing the warnings to some extent. But killing all the
warnings will makes the patch less readable, so I stopped here.
