At least __alloc_pages_bulk() is also missed. The branch > can be guarded with IS_ENABLED. It can't be in a function, it has to be in a wrapper macro. alloc_tag_add() is a macro that defines a static struct in a special elf section. That struct holds the allocation counters, and putting it in a special elf section is how the code to list it in debugfs finds it. Look at the dynamic debug code for prior precedence for this trick in the kernel - that's how it makes pr_debug() calls dynamically controllable at runtime, from debugfs. We're taking that method and turning it into a proper library. Because all the counters are statically allocated, without even a pointer deref to get to them in the allocation path (one pointer deref to get to them in the deallocate path), that makes this _much, much_ cheaper than anything that could be done with tracing - cheap enough that I expect many users will want to enable it in production.
