Debugging a specific driver or subsystem can be a lot easier if we can trace events specific to that driver or subsystem. This type of filtering can be achieved using existing dynamic debug library which provides a way to filter based on files, functions and modules. Using this, provide an additional flag 'e' to filter event tracing to specified input. For example, tracing all IO read/write can be overwhelming and of no use when debugging a specific driver or a subsystem. So switch to dynamic event tracing for register accesses. Example for tracing register accesses in drivers/soc/qcom/* and the pstore output is given below: # dyndbg="file drivers/soc/qcom/* +e" trace_event=io tp_pstore # reboot -f # mount -t pstore pstore /sys/fs/pstore # cat /sys/fs/pstore/event-ramoops-0 io_write: type=writel cpu=1 ts:1423596253 data=0xffff00000d2065a4 caller=qcom_smsm_probe+0x524/0x670 io_write: type=writel cpu=1 ts:1423945889 data=0xffff00000d206608 caller=qcom_smsm_probe+0x524/0x670 Note: Tracing is activated only when flag is enabled either through command line or through dynamic debug control file.
