      ftrace: Optimize function graph to be called directly · 79922b80
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
      Function graph tracing is a bit different than the function tracers, as
      it is processed after either the ftrace_caller or ftrace_regs_caller
      and we only have one place to modify the jump to ftrace_graph_caller,
      the jump needs to happen after the restore of registeres.
      
      The function graph tracer is dependent on the function tracer, where
      even if the function graph tracing is going on by itself, the save and
      restore of registers is still done for function tracing regardless of
      if function tracing is happening, before it calls the function graph
      code.
      
      If there's no function tracing happening, it is possible to just call
      the function graph tracer directly, and avoid the wasted effort to save
      and restore regs for function tracing.
      
      This requires adding new flags to the dyn_ftrace records:
      
        FTRACE_FL_TRAMP
        FTRACE_FL_TRAMP_EN
      
      The first is set if the count for the record is one, and the ftrace_ops
      associated to that record has its own trampoline. That way the mcount code
      can call that trampoline directly.
      
      In the future, trampolines can be added to arbitrary ftrace_ops, where you
      can have two or more ftrace_ops registered to ftrace (like kprobes and perf)
      and if they are not tracing the same functions, then instead of doing a
      loop to check all registered ftrace_ops against their hashes, just call the
      ftrace_ops trampoline directly, which would call the registered ftrace_ops
      function directly.
      
      Without this patch perf showed:
      
        0.05%  hackbench  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] ftrace_caller
        0.05%  hackbench  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] arch_local_irq_save

        0.04%  hackbench  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] ftrace_graph_caller
      
      See that the ftrace_caller took up more time than the ftrace_graph_caller
      did.
      
      With this patch:
      
        0.05%  hackbench  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] __buffer_unlock_commit
        0.04%  hackbench  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] call_filter_check_discard
        0.04%  hackbench  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] ftrace_graph_caller
        0.04%  hackbench  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] sched_clock
      
      The ftrace_caller is no where to be found and ftrace_graph_caller still
      takes up the same percentage.

      ftrace: Add ftrace_rec_counter() macro to simplify the code · 0376bde1
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
      The ftrace dynamic record has a flags element that also has a counter.
      Instead of hard coding "rec->flags & ~FTRACE_FL_MASK" all over the
      place. Use a macro instead.

      ftrace: Use macros for numbers in ftrace rec shift bits · cf2cb0b2
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
      As new flags will be added to the ftrace dynamic record, and since
      the flags field is also a counter, converting the numbers used to
      do the shifting and masking into a set of macros where we only need
      to deal with the max bit count of the counter and the number of bits
      for the flags will prevent mistakes in the future.
      
      Dealing with only two numbers is much easier than updating all the
      macros that deal with shifting and masking.

      ftrace: Allow no regs if no more callbacks require it · 4fbb48cb
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
      When registering a function callback for the function tracer, the ops
      can specify if it wants to save full regs (like an interrupt would)
      for each function that it traces, or if it does not care about regs
      and just wants to have the fastest return possible.
      
      Once a ops has registered a function, if other ops register that
      function they all will receive the regs too. That's because it does
      the work once, it does it for everyone.
      
      Now if the ops wanting regs unregisters the function so that there's
      only ops left that do not care about regs, those ops will still
      continue getting regs and going through the work for it on that
      function. This is because the disabling of the rec counter only
      sees the ops registered, and does not see the ops that are still
      attached, and does not know if the current ops that are still attached
      want regs or not. To play it safe, it just keeps regs being processed
      until no function is registered anymore.
      
      Instead of doing that, check the ops that are still registered for that
      function and if none want regs for it anymore, then disable the
      processing of regs.

      iscsi-target: fix iscsit_del_np deadlock on unload · 81a9c5e7
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      On uniprocessor preemptible kernel, target core deadlocks on unload. The
      following events happen:
      * iscsit_del_np is called
      * it calls send_sig(SIGINT, np->np_thread, 1);
      * the scheduler switches to the np_thread
      * the np_thread is woken up, it sees that kthread_should_stop() returns
        false, so it doesn't terminate
      * the np_thread clears signals with flush_signals(current); and goes back
        to sleep in iscsit_accept_np
      * the scheduler switches back to iscsit_del_np
      * iscsit_del_np calls kthread_stop(np->np_thread);
      * the np_thread is waiting in iscsit_accept_np and it doesn't respond to
        kthread_stop
      
      The deadlock could be resolved if the administrator sends SIGINT signal to
      the np_thread with killall -INT iscsi_np
      
      The reproducible deadlock was introduced in commit
      db6077fd, but the thread-stopping code was
      racy even before.
      
      This patch fixes the problem. Using kthread_should_stop to stop the
      np_thread is unreliable, so we test np_thread_state instead. If
      np_thread_state equals ISCSI_NP_THREAD_SHUTDOWN, the thread exits.
