Enable the kernel to trace every kernel function. This is done
|
|
by using a compiler feature to insert a small, 5-byte No-Operation
|
|
instruction to the beginning of every kernel function, which NOP
|
|
sequence is then dynamically patched into a tracer call when
|
|
tracing is enabled by the administrator. If it's runtime disabled
|
|
(the bootup default), then the overhead of the instructions is very
|
|
small and not measurable even in micro-benchmarks.

This option measures the time spent in irqs-off critical

sections, with microsecond accuracy.

The default measurement method is a maximum search, which is

disabled by default and can be runtime (re-)started
|

via:

echo 0 > /debugfs/tracing/tracing_max_latency

enabled. This option and the preempt-off timing option can be

This option will modify all the calls to ftrace dynamically
|
|
(will patch them out of the binary image and replaces them
|
|
with a No-Op instruction) as they are called. A table is
|
|
created to dynamically enable them again.
|
|
|
|
This way a CONFIG_FTRACE kernel is slightly larger, but otherwise
|
|
has native performance as long as no tracing is active.
|
|
|
|
The changes to the code are done by a kernel thread that
|
|
wakes up once a second and checks to see if any ftrace calls
|
|
were made. If so, it runs stop_machine (stops all CPUS)
|
|
and modifies the code to jump over the call to ftrace.

This option performs a series of startup tests on ftrace. On bootup

a series of tests are made to verify that the tracer is

functioning properly. It will do tests on all the configured

tracers of ftrace.
