* powerpc/ftrace: Fix math to calculate offset in TOCSteven Rostedt2009-02-101-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix dynamic ftrace with large modules in PPC64 The math to calculate the offset into the TOC that is taken from reading the trampoline is incorrect. The bottom half of the offset is a signed extended short. The current code was using an OR to create the offset when it should have been using an addition.

* powerpc: ftrace, use create_branchSteven Rostedt2008-11-281-42/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: clean up Paul Mackerras pointed out that the code to determine if the branch can reach the destination is incorrect. Michael Ellerman suggested to pull out the code from create_branch and use that. Simply using create_branch is probably the best.

* powerpc: ftrace, added missing icache flushSteven Rostedt2008-11-281-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | Impact: fix to PowerPC code modification After modifying code it is essential to flush the icache. This patch adds the missing flush. Reported-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* powerpc: ftrace, fix cast aliasing and add code verificationSteven Rostedt2008-11-281-56/+65
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: clean up and robustness addition This patch addresses the comments made by Paul Mackerras. It removes the type casting between unsigned int and unsigned char pointers, and replaces them with a use of all unsigned int. Verification that the jump is indeed made to a trampoline has also been added. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* powerpc/ppc32: ftrace, dynamic ftrace to handle modulesSteven Rostedt2008-11-201-6/+95
| | | | | | | | | Impact: add ability to trace modules on 32 bit PowerPC This patch performs the necessary trampoline calls to handle modules with dynamic ftrace on 32 bit PowerPC. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
* powerpc/ppc64: ftrace, handle module trampolines for dyn ftraceSteven Rostedt2008-11-201-10/+268
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: Allow 64 bit PowerPC to trace modules with dynamic ftrace This adds code to handle the PPC64 module trampolines, and allows for PPC64 to use dynamic ftrace. Thanks to Paul Mackerras for these updates: - fix the mod and rec->arch.mod NULL checks. - fix to is_bl_op compare. Thanks to Milton Miller for: - finding the nasty race with using two nops, and recommending instead that I use a branch 8 forward. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
* powerpc: ftrace, use probe_kernel API to modify codeSteven Rostedt2008-11-201-32/+21
| | | | | | | | | Impact: use cleaner probe_kernel API over assembly Using probe_kernel_read/write interface is a much cleaner approach than the current assembly version. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
* powerpc: ftrace, convert to new dynamic ftrace arch APISteven Rostedt2008-11-201-5/+62
| | | | | | | | | | | Impact: update to PowerPC ftrace arch API This patch converts PowerPC to use the new dynamic ftrace arch API. Thanks to Paul Mackennas for pointing out the mistakes of my original test_24bit_addr function. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
* ftrace, powerpc, sparc64, x86: remove notrace from arch ftrace fileSteven Rostedt2008-10-231-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | The entire file of ftrace.c in the arch code needs to be marked as notrace. It is much cleaner to do this from the Makefile with CFLAGS_REMOVE_ftrace.o. [ powerpc already had this in its Makefile. ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* ftrace: remove mcount setSteven Rostedt2008-10-231-17/+0
| | | | | | | | The arch dependent function ftrace_mcount_set was only used by the daemon start up code. This patch removes it. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
* ftrace: store mcount address in rec->ipAbhishek Sagar2008-06-231-14/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | Record the address of the mcount call-site. Currently all archs except sparc64 record the address of the instruction following the mcount call-site. Some general cleanups are entailed. Storing mcount addresses in rec->ip enables looking them up in the kprobe hash table later on to check if they're kprobe'd.
