Subject: [PATCH v3 1/6] powerpc64/ftrace: Add a field in paca to disable ftrace in unsafe code paths
Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2018 15:55:21 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <fa3e12766e7dd9e28ebea36a7eadab1e2782515c.1521713762.git.naveen.n.rao@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1521713762.git.naveen.n.rao@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1521713762.git.naveen.n.rao@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

We have some C code that we call into from real mode where we cannot
take any exceptions. Though the C functions themselves are mostly safe,
if these functions are traced, there is a possibility that we may take
an exception. For instance, in certain conditions, the ftrace code uses
WARN(), which uses a 'trap' to do its job.

For such scenarios, introduce a new field in paca 'ftrace_disabled',
which is checked on ftrace entry before continuing. This field can then
be set to a non-zero value to disable/pause ftrace, and reset to zero to
resume ftrace.

Changes since v2:
- Move paca->ftrace_disabled out of CONFIG_BOOK3S_64.
- Disable tracing when asked for, not the other way around.
