[PATCH v2] trace: Add x86 irq vector entry/exit tracepoints

From: Vaibhav Nagarnaik
Date: Tue May 31 2011 - 17:29:27 EST

From: Jiaying Zhang <jiayingz@xxxxxxxxxx>

The current interrupt trace of irq_handler_entry and irq_handler_exit
give traces of when an interrupt is handled. They provide good data
about when the system is running in kernel space and how it affects the
currently running applications.

Apart from this, they are IRQ vectors which trigger the system into
kernel space. Tracing such events gives us the trace of where the system
is spending its time. We want to know which cores are handling
interrupts and how they are affecting other processes in the system.
Also, the trace provides information about when the cores are idle and
which interrupts are changing that state.

The following patch adds the event definition and trace instrumentation
for interrupt vectors. For x86, a lookup table is provided to print out
readable IRQ vector names. The template can be used to provide interrupt
vector lookup tables on other architectures.

With this patch, following interrupt vectors are logged by ftrace
(when enabled):

Interrupt as in /proc/interrupts Name as it appears in ftrace log
NMI: Non-maskable interrupts : NMI_VECTOR
LOC: Local timer interrupts : LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR
SPU: Spurious interrupts : SPURIOUS_APIC_VECTOR
PMI: Performance monitoring interrupts : <not added>
IWI: IRQ work interrupts : IRQ_WORK_VECTOR
RES: Rescheduling interrupts : RESCHEDULE_VECTOR
CAL: Function call interrupts : CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR or
CALL_FUNCTION_SINGLE_VECTOR
TLB: TLB shootdowns : INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR_START to
INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR_END
TRM: Thermal event interrupts : THERMAL_APIC_VECTOR
THR: Threshold APIC interrupts : THRESHOLD_APIC_VECTOR
MCE: Machine check exceptions : <not added>
MCP: Machine check polls : <not added>
ERR: : ERROR_APIC_VECTOR
MIS: : <not added>
PLT: Platform interrupts : X86_PLATFORM_IPI_VECTOR

In above output:
NMI (Non-maskable interrupts) == NMI_VECTOR (irq 2)
LOC (Local timer interrupts) == LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR (irq 239)
RES (Rescheduling interrupts) == RESCHEDULE_VECTOR (irq=253)
CAL (Function call interrupts) == CALL_FUNCTION_VECTOR (irq 252) +
CALL_FUNCTION_SINGLE_VECTOR (irq 251)
TLB (TLB shootdowns) == INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR_0 (irq=240) +
INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR_1 (irq=241) +
INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTOR_2 (irq=242)
