Use -fpatchable-function-entry (gcc8) to add 2 NOPs at the beginning
of each function. Replace the first NOP thus generated with a quick LR
saver (move it to scratch reg x9), so the 2nd replacement insn, the call
to ftrace, does not clobber the value. Ftrace will then generate the
standard stack frames.

Note that patchable-function-entry in GCC disables IPA-RA, which means
ABI register calling conventions are obeyed *and* scratch registers
such as x9 are available.

Introduce and handle an ftrace_regs_trampoline for module PLTs, together
with ftrace_trampoline, and double the size of this special section
if .text.ftrace_trampoline is present in the module.

As reliable stack traces are still being discussed, here is
dynamic ftrace with regs only, which has a value of its own.
I can see Mark has broken down an earlier version into smaller
patches; just let me know if you prefer that.

[Changes from v4]

* include Ard's feedback and pending changes:
  - ADR/ADRP veneers
  - ftrace_trampolines[2]
  - add a .req for fp, just in case
  - comment on the pt_regs.stackframe[2] mapping
* include Mark's ftrace cleanup
  - GLOBAL()
  - prepare_ftrace_return(pc, &lr, fp)

Hi Torsten,

I was testing your patch and it seems to work fine for function trace. However
function graph trace seems broken. Is it work in progress ? or I am
missing something.

What did you base your tests on, you didn't specify?
OTOH neither did I ;-) I precluded all addressees had the full picture.

Precisely, I basically start with 4.19, but 4.20-rc shouldn't make a
difference. BUT...

change the API this patch set relies on. AFAIU they are on their way into
mainline so I updated v5 accordingly. If you don't have these, just use v4;
the other changes are only for compatibility and cosmetics.

HTH,

Sorry I didn't mention my environment. I am using 4.20-rc3 and it has
all the above 8 extra patches
mentioned by you.
I read your change description in v3 patchset. You had mentioned there
that graph caller
is broken.

So that should be fine.

No, actually I thought I had fixed that for v4. Would you care to show
us an actual error message or some symptom?

There is no error message or crash but no useful output like below,

/sys/kernel/tracing # echo wake_up_process > set_graph_function
/sys/kernel/tracing # echo function_graph > current_tracer
/sys/kernel/tracing # cat trace
# tracer: function_graph

Confirmed. The graph tracer self-test passes, but when used, there is no
output.

It turned out the graph caller works perfectly, I only broke the filtering.
Fixed now in v6; thanks a lot for testing!
