[PATCH V3 0/5] riscv: ftrace: Fixup ftrace detour code & Optimization
From: guoren
Date: Wed Nov 23 2022 - 10:40:43 EST
From: Guo Ren <guoren@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The previous ftrace detour implementation fc76b8b8011 ("riscv: Using
PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY instead of MCOUNT") contain three problems.
- The most horrible bug is preemption panic which found by Andy [1].
Let's disable preemption for ftrace first, and Andy could continue
the ftrace preemption work.
- The "-fpatchable-function-entry= CFLAG" wasted code size !RISCV_ISA_C.
- The ftrace detour implementation wasted code size.
The first three patches solve the above problems, and the last two
patches is from [2]:
In RISC-V architecture, when we enable the ftrace_graph tracer on some
functions, the function tracings on other functions will suffer extra
graph tracing work. In essence, graph_ops isn't limited by its func_hash
due to the global ftrace_graph_[regs]_call label. That should be
corrected.
What inspires me is the commit 0c0593b45c9b ("x86/ftrace: Make function
graph use ftrace directly") that uses graph_ops::func function to
install return_hooker and makes the function called against its
func_hash.
This series of patches makes function graph use ftrace directly for
riscv.
If FTRACE_WITH_REGS isn't defined, ftrace_caller keeps ftrace_graph_call
so that it can be replaced with the calling of prepare_ftrace_return by
the enable/disable helper.
As for defining FTRACE_WITH_REGS, ftrace_caller is adjusted to save the
necessary regs against the pt_regs layout, so it can reasonably call the
graph_ops::func function - ftrace_graph_func. And ftrace_graph_[regs]_call
and its enable/disable helper aren't needed.
Test log:
The tests generated by CONFIG_FTRACE_STARTUP_TEST have passed in the
local
qemu-system-riscv64 virt machine. The following is the log during
startup.
