From 7e066fb870fcd1025ec3ba7bbde5d541094f4ce1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathieu Desnoyers Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2008 17:47:47 -0500 Subject: tracepoints: add DECLARE_TRACE() and DEFINE_TRACE() Impact: API *CHANGE*. Must update all tracepoint users. Add DEFINE_TRACE() to tracepoints to let them declare the tracepoint structure in a single spot for all the kernel. It helps reducing memory consumption, especially when declaring a lot of tracepoints, e.g. for kmalloc tracing. *API CHANGE WARNING*: now, DECLARE_TRACE() must be used in headers for tracepoint declarations rather than DEFINE_TRACE(). This is the sane way to do it. The name previously used was misleading. Updates scheduler instrumentation to follow this API change.

Actually I think do_sys_times() doesn't need ->siglock at all.

But it could be unsafe to store these return addresses to the stack. So these arrays will now be allocated dynamically into task_struct of current only when the tracer is activated. Typical scheme when tracer is activated: - allocate a return stack for each task in global list. - fork: allocate the return stack for the newly created task - exit: free return stack of current - idle init: same as fork I chose a default depth of 50. I don't have overruns anymore.
