64 * The TRACE_EVENT macro is broken up into 5 parts.
65 *
66 * name: name of the trace point. This is also how to enable the tracepoint.
67 * A function called trace_foo_bar() will be created.
68 *
69 * proto: the prototype of the function trace_foo_bar()
70 * Here it is trace_foo_bar(char *foo, int bar).
71 *
72 * args: must match the arguments in the prototype.
73 * Here it is simply "foo, bar".
74 *
75 * struct: This defines the way the data will be stored in the ring buffer.
76 * The items declared here become part of a special structure
77 * called "__entry", which can be used in the fast_assign part of the
78 * TRACE_EVENT macro.
79 *
80 * Here are the currently defined types you can use:
81 *
82 * __field : Is broken up into type and name. Where type can be any
83 * primitive type (integer, long or pointer).
84 *
85 * __field(int, foo)
86 *
87 * __entry->foo = 5;
88 *
89 * __field_struct : This can be any static complex data type (struct, union
90 * but not an array). Be careful using complex types, as each
91 * event is limited in size, and copying large amounts of data
92 * into the ring buffer can slow things down.
93 *
94 * __field_struct(struct bar, foo)
95 *
96 * __entry->bar.x = y;
97
98 * __array: There are three fields (type, name, size). The type is the
99 * type of elements in the array, the name is the name of the array.
100 * size is the number of items in the array (not the total size).
101 *
102 * __array( char, foo, 10) is the same as saying: char foo[10];
103 *
104 * Assigning arrays can be done like any array:
105 *
106 * __entry->foo[0] = 'a';
107 *
108 * memcpy(__entry->foo, bar, 10);
109 *
110 * __dynamic_array: This is similar to array, but can vary its size from
111 * instance to instance of the tracepoint being called.
112 * Like __array, this too has three elements (type, name, size);
113 * type is the type of the element, name is the name of the array.
114 * The size is different than __array. It is not a static number,
115 * but the algorithm to figure out the length of the array for the
116 * specific instance of tracepoint. Again, size is the number of
117 * items in the array, not the total length in bytes.
118 *
119 * __dynamic_array( int, foo, bar) is similar to: int foo[bar];
120 *
121 * Note, unlike arrays, you must use the __get_dynamic_array() macro
122 * to access the array.
123 *
124 * memcpy(__get_dynamic_array(foo), bar, 10);
125 *
126 * Notice, that "__entry" is not needed here.
127 *
128 * __string: This is a special kind of __dynamic_array. It expects to
129 * have a null terminated character array passed to it (it allows
130 * for NULL too, which would be converted into "(null)"). __string
131 * takes two parameter (name, src), where name is the name of
132 * the string saved, and src is the string to copy into the
133 * ring buffer.
134 *
135 * __string(foo, bar) is similar to: strcpy(foo, bar)
136 *
137 * To assign a string, use the helper macro __assign_str().
138 *
139 * __assign_str(foo, bar);
140 *
141 * In most cases, the __assign_str() macro will take the same
142 * parameters as the __string() macro had to declare the string.
143 *
144 * __bitmask: This is another kind of __dynamic_array, but it expects
145 * an array of longs, and the number of bits to parse. It takes
146 * two parameters (name, nr_bits), where name is the name of the
147 * bitmask to save, and the nr_bits is the number of bits to record.
148 *
149 * __bitmask(target_cpu, nr_cpumask_bits)
150 *
151 * To assign a bitmask, use the __assign_bitmask() helper macro.
152 *
153 * __assign_bitmask(target_cpus, cpumask_bits(bar), nr_cpumask_bits);
154 *
155 *
156 * fast_assign: This is a C like function that is used to store the items
157 * into the ring buffer. A special variable called "__entry" will be the
158 * structure that points into the ring buffer and has the same fields as
159 * described by the struct part of TRACE_EVENT above.
160 *
161 * printk: This is a way to print out the data in pretty print. This is
162 * useful if the system crashes and you are logging via a serial line,
163 * the data can be printed to the console using this "printk" method.
164 * This is also used to print out the data from the trace files.
165 * Again, the __entry macro is used to access the data from the ring buffer.
166 *
167 * Note, __dynamic_array, __string, and __bitmask require special helpers
168 * to access the data.
169 *
170 * For __dynamic_array(int, foo, bar) use __get_dynamic_array(foo)
171 * Use __get_dynamic_array_len(foo) to get the length of the array
172 * saved. Note, __get_dynamic_array_len() returns the total allocated
173 * length of the dynamic array; __print_array() expects the second
174 * parameter to be the number of elements. To get that, the array length
175 * needs to be divided by the element size.
176 *
177 * For __string(foo, bar) use __get_str(foo)
178 *
179 * For __bitmask(target_cpus, nr_cpumask_bits) use __get_bitmask(target_cpus)
180 *
181 *
182 * Note, that for both the assign and the printk, __entry is the handler
183 * to the data structure in the ring buffer, and is defined by the
184 * TP_STRUCT__entry.
185 */

308 * Would cause a little overhead when tracing is not enabled, and that

46 *
47 * name: name of the trace point. This is also how to enable the tracepoint.
48 * A function called trace_foo_bar() will be created.
49 *
50 * proto: the prototype of the function trace_foo_bar()
51 * Here it is trace_foo_bar(char *foo, int bar).
52 *
53 * args: must match the arguments in the prototype.
54 * Here it is simply "foo, bar".
55 *
56 * struct: This defines the way the data will be stored in the ring buffer.
57 * There are currently two types of elements. __field and __array.
58 * a __field is broken up into (type, name). Where type can be any
59 * type but an array.
60 * For an array. there are three fields. (type, name, size). The
61 * type of elements in the array, the name of the field and the size
62 * of the array.
63 *
64 * __array( char, foo, 10) is the same as saying char foo[10].
65 *
66 * fast_assign: This is a C like function that is used to store the items
67 * into the ring buffer.
68 *
69 * printk: This is a way to print out the data in pretty print. This is
70 * useful if the system crashes and you are logging via a serial line,
71 * the data can be printed to the console using this "printk" method.
72 *
73 * Note, that for both the assign and the printk, __entry is the handler
74 * to the data structure in the ring buffer, and is defined by the
75 * TP_STRUCT__entry.

101 * There are several ways I could have done this. If I left out the
102 * TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH, then it would default to the kernel source
103 * include/trace/events directory.
104 *
105 * I could specify a path from the define_trace.h file back to this
106 * file.
107 *
108 * #define TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH ../../samples/trace_events
109 *
110 * But the safest and easiest way to simply make it use the directory
111 * that the file is in is to add in the Makefile:
112 *
113 * CFLAGS_trace-events-sample.o := -I$(src)
114 *
115 * This will make sure the current path is part of the include
116 * structure for our file so that define_trace.h can find it.
117 *
118 * I could have made only the top level directory the include:
119 *
120 * CFLAGS_trace-events-sample.o := -I$(PWD)
121 *
122 * And then let the path to this directory be the TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH:
123 *
124 * #define TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH samples/trace_events
125 *
126 * But then if something defines "samples" or "trace_events" as a macro
127 * then we could risk that being converted too, and give us an unexpected
128 * result.
