      scripts/tracing: fix the bug that can't parse raw_trace_func · 1c0cec64
      Hui Su authored 
      Since commit 77271ce4 ("tracing: Add irq, preempt-count and need resched info
to default trace output"), the default trace output format has been changed to:
          <idle>-0       [009] d.h. 22420.068695: _raw_spin_lock_irqsave <-hrtimer_interrupt
          <idle>-0       [000] ..s. 22420.068695: _nohz_idle_balance <-run_rebalance_domains
          <idle>-0       [011] d.h. 22420.068695: account_process_tick <-update_process_times

The draw_functrace.py(introduced in v2.6.28) can't parse the new version format trace_func,
So we need modify draw_functrace.py to adapt the new version trace output format.

      scripts/recordmcount.pl: Remove check_objcopy() and $can_use_local · b18b851b
      Nathan Chancellor authored 
      When building ARCH=riscv allmodconfig with llvm-objcopy, the objcopy
version warning from this script appears:

WARNING: could not find objcopy version or version is less than 2.17.
        Local function references are disabled.

The check_objcopy() function in scripts/recordmcount.pl is set up to
parse GNU objcopy's version string, not llvm-objcopy's, which triggers
the warning.

Commit 799c4341 ("kbuild: thin archives make default for all archs")
made binutils 2.20 mandatory and commit ba64beb1 ("kbuild: check the
minimum assembler version in Kconfig") enforces this at configuration
time so just remove check_objcopy() and $can_use_local instead, assuming
--globalize-symbol is always available.

llvm-objcopy has supported --globalize-symbol since LLVM 7.0.0 in 2018
and the minimum version for building the kernel with LLVM is 10.0.1 so
there is no issue introduced:

      tracing: Reject string operand in the histogram expression · a9d10ca4
      Masami Hiramatsu authored 
      Since the string type can not be the target of the addition / subtraction
operation, it must be rejected. Without this fix, the string type silently
converted to digits.

      tracing / histogram: Give calculation hist_fields a size · 2c05caa7
      Steven Rostedt (VMware) authored 
      When working on my user space applications, I found a bug in the synthetic
event code where the automated synthetic event field was not matching the
event field calculation it was attached to. Looking deeper into it, it was
because the calculation hist_field was not given a size.

The synthetic event fields are matched to their hist_fields either by
having the field have an identical string type, or if that does not match,
then the size and signed values are used to match the fields.

The problem arose when I tried to match a calculation where the fields
were "unsigned int". My tool created a synthetic event of type "u32". But
it failed to match. The string was:

  diff=field1-field2:onmatch(event).trace(synth,$diff)

Adding debugging into the kernel, I found that the size of "diff" was 0.
And since it was given "unsigned int" as a type, the histogram fallback
code used size and signed. The signed matched, but the size of u32 (4) did
not match zero, and the event failed to be created.

This can be worse if the field you want to match is not one of the
acceptable fields for a synthetic event. As event fields can have any type
that is supported in Linux, this can cause an issue. For example, if a
type is an enum. Then there's no way to use that with any calculations.

Have the calculation field simply take on the size of what it is
calculating.
