From 74e7ff8c50b6b022e6ffaa736b16a4dc161d3eaf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lai Jiangshan Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2009 20:17:22 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Fix missing function_graph events when we splice_read from trace_pipe About a half events are missing when we splice_read from trace_pipe. They are unexpectedly consumed because we ignore the TRACE_TYPE_NO_CONSUME return value used by the function graph tracer when it needs to consume the events by itself to walk on the ring buffer. The same problem appears with ftrace_dump() Example of an output before this patch: 1) | ktime_get_real() { 1) 2.846 us | read_hpet(); 1) 4.558 us | } 1) 6.195 us | } After this patch: 0) | ktime_get_real() { 0) | getnstimeofday() { 0) 1.960 us | read_hpet(); 0) 3.597 us | } 0) 5.196 us | } The fix also applies on 2.6.30 Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: stable@kernel.org LKML-Reference: <4A6EEC52.90704@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker --- kernel/trace/trace.c | 10 +++++++--- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/trace/trace.c b/kernel/trace/trace.c index 8bc8d8a..da984ad 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/trace.c +++ b/kernel/trace/trace.c @@ -3085,7 +3085,8 @@ tracing_fill_pipe_page(size_t rem, struct trace_iterator *iter) break; } - trace_consume(iter); + if (ret != TRACE_TYPE_NO_CONSUME) + trace_consume(iter); rem -= count; if (!find_next_entry_inc(iter)) { rem = 0; @@ -4233,8 +4234,11 @@ static void __ftrace_dump(bool disable_tracing) iter.pos = -1; if (find_next_entry_inc(&iter) != NULL) { - print_trace_line(&iter); - trace_consume(&iter); + int ret; + + ret = print_trace_line(&iter); + if (ret != TRACE_TYPE_NO_CONSUME) + trace_consume(&iter); } trace_printk_seq(&iter.seq); -- 2.7.4
