[PATCH 0/8] tracing: Allow system call tracepoints to handle page faults

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Wire up the system call tracepoints with Tasks Trace RCU to allow
the ftrace, perf, and eBPF tracers to handle page faults.

This series does the initial wire-up allowing tracers to handle page
faults, but leaves out the actual handling of said page faults as future
work.

This series was compile and runtime tested with ftrace and perf syscall
tracing and raw syscall tracing, adding a WARN_ON_ONCE() in the
generated code to validate that the intended probes are used for raw
syscall tracing. The might_fault() added within those probes validate
that they are called from a context where handling a page fault is OK.

For ebpf, this series is compile-tested only.

This series replaces the "Faultable Tracepoints v6" series found at [1].

Thanks,

Mathieu
