      tracing: Remove NR_CPUS array from trace_iterator · 6d158a81
      Steven Rostedt authored
      Replace the NR_CPUS array of buffer_iter from the trace_iterator
      with an allocated array. This will just create an array of
      possible CPUS instead of the max number specified.
      
      The use of NR_CPUS in that array caused allocation failures for
      machines that were tight on memory. This did not cause any failures
      to the system itself (no crashes), but caused unnecessary failures
      for reading the trace files.
      
      Added a helper function called 'trace_buffer_iter()' that returns
      the buffer_iter item or NULL if it is not defined or the array was
      not allocated. Some routines do not require the array
      (tracing_open_pipe() for one).

      tracing/kvm: Use __print_hex() for kvm_emulate_insn tracepoint · b102f1d0
      Namhyung Kim authored
      The kvm_emulate_insn tracepoint used __print_insn()
      for printing its instructions. However it makes the
      format of the event hard to parse as it reveals TP
      internals.
      
      Fortunately, kernel provides __print_hex for almost
      same purpose, we can use it instead of open coding
      it. The user-space can be changed to parse it later.
      
      That means raw kernel tracing will not be affected
      by this change:
      
       # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
       # cat events/kvm/kvm_emulate_insn/format
       name: kvm_emulate_insn
       ID: 29
       format:
      	...
       print fmt: "%x:%llx:%s (%s)%s", REC->csbase, REC->rip, __print_hex(REC->insn, REC->len), \
       __print_symbolic(REC->flags, { 0, "real" }, { (1 << 0) | (1 << 1), "vm16" }, \
       { (1 << 0), "prot16" }, { (1 << 0) | (1 << 2), "prot32" }, { (1 << 0) | (1 << 3), "prot64" }), \
       REC->failed ? " failed" : ""

      tracing/selftest: Add a WARN_ON() if a tracer test fails · 0be61ebc
      Steven Rostedt authored
      Add a WARN_ON() output on test failures so that they are easier to detect
      in automated tests. Although, the WARN_ON() will not print if the test
      causes the system to crash, obviously.
