[PATCH v4 00/10] LoongArch: Add ftrace support
From: Qing Zhang
Date: Thu Sep 15 2022 - 22:55:55 EST
This patch series to support basic and dynamic ftrace.
1) -pg
Use `-pg` makes stub like a child function `void _mcount(void *ra)`.
Thus, it can be seen store RA and open stack before `call _mcount`.
Find `open stack` at first, and then find `store RA`.
2) -fpatchable-function-entry=2
The compiler has inserted 2 NOPs before the regular function prologue.
T series registers are available and safe because of LoongArch psABI.
At runtime, replace nop with bl to enable ftrace call and replace bl with
nop to disable ftrace call. The bl requires us to save the original RA value,
so here it saves RA at t0.
details are:
| Compiled | Disabled | Enabled |
+------------+------------------------+------------------------+
| nop | move t0, ra | move t0, ra |
| nop | nop | bl ftrace_caller |
| func_body | func_body | func_body |
The RA value will be recovered by ftrace_regs_entry, and restored into RA
before returning to the regular function prologue. When a function is not
being traced, the move t0, ra is not harmful.
performs a series of startup tests on ftrace and The test cases in selftests
has passed on LoongArch.
Changes in v2:
- Remove patch "LoongArch: ftrace: Add CALLER_ADDRx macros" there are other
better ways
Suggested by Steve:
- Add HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS support (6/10)
Suggested by Jinyang:
- Change addu16id to lu12iw and Adjust module_finalize return value (7/10)
- Use the "jr" pseudo-instruction where applicable (1/10)
- Use the "la.pcrel" instead of "la" (3/10)
Changes in v3:
Reported by Jeff:
- Fix unwind state when option func_stack_trace (10/10)
Changes in v4:
- No comments. Just resend the series.
- Rebased onto v6.0.0-rc4.
