With this patch we no longer reuse function tracer infrastructure, now
we register our own tracer back-end via a debugfs knob.

It's a bit more code, but that is the only downside. On the bright side we
have:

- Ability to make persistent_ram module removable (when needed, we can
  move ftrace_ops struct into a module). Note that persistent_ram is still
  not removable for other reasons, but with this patch it's just one
  thing less to worry about;

- Pstore part is more isolated from the generic function tracer. We tried
  it already by registering our own tracer in available_tracers, but that
  way we're loosing ability to see the traces while we record them to
  pstore. This solution is somewhere in the middle: we only register
  "internal ftracer" back-end, but not the "front-end";

- When there is only pstore tracing enabled, the kernel will only write
  to the pstore buffer, omitting function tracer buffer (which, of course,
  still can be enabled via 'echo function > current_tracer').

Well, that might be not pretty, yeah. OK, since debugfs is mandatory
anyway, let's check for !NULL then, it's also less lines of code. :-)

Thanks a lot for the review, Stephen!

Hi Steven,

Unless there are any issues, may I take the patch via linux-pstore.git
tree?

Thanks!

I'm fine with it. I know there was some issues about recursion
protection and I said that the function tracer now has its own
protection where you don't need to worry about it. I was hoping that
code would make it into 3.6, but Linus opened the merge window the day
after I posted the final version. Which I figured was too close to the
merge window to push for 3.6 (lots of changes occurred, and I wanted it
vetted in linux-next for a bit).

Now those changes are queued for 3.7 and are currently in the tip tree.
You can supply your own temporary recursion protection to the function
tracer callback, or wait till my changes make it into Linus's tree.

Specifically, see commit 4740974a6844156c14d741b0080b59d275679a23 (in
tip.git).

Great! Btw, the particular recursion issue that I faced back then was
triggered by a missing 'notrace' specifier for the ->write() callback in
pstore code, i.e. a bug in pstore.

Running without any recursion protection is prone to weird
lockups/reboots, and probably a good idea to have it on a production
system. But recursion during tracing is still an evidence of some other
bugs, right? At least the fact that I didn't have it helped me to find a
bug. So, does it make sense to make the recursion protection optionally
disabled? Maybe as some CONFIG_DEBUG_* option (briefly looking into
kernel/trace/Kconfig I didn't find any)?

Thanks,

Anton.

The problem is that recursion bugs are usually due to calling something
that might be traced. Really, I've hit so many recursion bugs, that
having the protection is probably the best thing. I wouldn't turn it
off.

The worse that recursion can do (with proper protection) is that it
causes a little wasted effort during the trace (it wastes cycles tracing
something again and then recognizing that it is doing it due to
recursion).

Therefore, the 'notrace' annotations are mostly for speed up (don't
trace this while tracing, because the tracer uses it too).
