[v2 PATCH -tip 0/6] net: tcp: sctp: dccp: Replace jprobe usage with trace events

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Hi,

This series is v2 of the replacement of jprobe usage with trace
events, and is just rebased on current tip/master branch.

Please review it and test it.
Anyway, this removes all {tcp,sctp,dccp}_probe.ko because those
depend on jprobe.

This introduce new trace events which allows user to
trace network congestion window etc. via ftrace or perftools.
And remove jprobe usages (tcp_probe/dccp_probe/sctp_probe).
So this series removes all register_jprobe users from the kernel
tree.

So following example in

https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/networking/tcpprobe

 # modprobe tcp_probe port=5001
 # cat /proc/net/tcpprobe >/tmp/data.out &
 # pid=$!
 # iperf -c otherhost
 # kill $pid

will be changed as below;

 # cd <debugfs or tracefs>/tracing
 # echo 1 > events/tcp/tcp_probe/enable
 # echo "sport == 5001 || dport == 5001"  > events/tcp/tcp_probe/filter
 # tail -f trace_pipe > /tmp/data.out &
 # pid=$!
 # iperf -c otherhost
 # kill $pid

And it outouts logs lile below;

# tracer: nop
#
#                              _-----=> irqs-off
#                             / _----=> need-resched
#                            | / _---=> hardirq/softirq

I need your feedback for this change, like formatting etc.
Also, I need more test for this events by who can setup
DCCP and SCTP, since those are special protocols, I have
no environment to test it.

Steve, I also wrote a hack in sctp_probe event. In that event
it calls trace_sctp_probe_path() directly and record it.
This means an event invokes another event inside.
As far as I can see, that seems OK.
But I need your review too.

Thank you,
