[PATCH 08/11] block: add block_touch_buffer tracepoint

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Thu Jan 05 2012 - 18:45:22 EST


Add block_touch_buffer tracepoint which gets triggered on
touch_buffer().

Because touch_buffer() is defined as macro in linux/buffer_head.h,
this creates circular dependency between linux/buffer_head.h and
events/block.h. As event header needs buffer_head details only when
the tracepoints are actually created (CREATE_TRACE_POINTS is defined),
this can be easily solved by including buffer_head.h before setting
CREATE_TRACE_POINTS and including the event header to create
tracepoints.

This is part of tracepoint additions to improve visiblity into
dirtying / writeback operations for io tracer and userland.
