[PATCH 4.9 36/94] sparc/ftrace: Fix ftrace graph time measurement
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jun 05 2017 - 13:05:58 EST
4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 48078d2dac0a26f84f5f3ec704f24f7c832cce14 ]
The ftrace function_graph time measurements of a given function is not
accurate according to those recorded by ftrace using the function
filters. This change pulls the x86_64 fix from 'commit 722b3c746953
("ftrace/graph: Trace function entry before updating index")' into the
sparc specific prepare_ftrace_return which stops ftrace from
counting interrupted tasks in the time measurement.
Example measurements for select_task_rq_fair running "hackbench 100
process 1000":
| tracing/trace_stat/function0 | function_graph
Before patch | 2.802 us | 4.255 us
After patch | 2.749 us | 3.094 us
