[PATCH 0/9] LoongArch: Add ftrace support

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

 



This patch series to support basic and dynamic ftrace.

1) -pg
Use `-pg` makes stub like a child function `void _mcount(void *ra)`.
Thus, it can be seen store RA and open stack before `call _mcount`.
Find `open stack` at first, and then find `store RA`.

2) -fpatchable-function-entry=2
The compiler has inserted 2 NOPs before the regular function prologue.
T series registers are available and safe because of LoongArch psABI.

At runtime, replace nop with bl to enable ftrace call and replace bl with
nop to disable ftrace call. The bl requires us to save the original RA value,
so here it saves RA at t0.
details are:

| Compiled   |       Disabled         |        Enabled         |
+------------+------------------------+------------------------+
| nop        | move     t0, ra        | move     t0, ra        |
| nop        | nop                    | bl      ftrace_caller  |
| func_body  | func_body              | func_body              |

The RA value will be recovered by ftrace_regs_entry, and restored into RA
before returning to the regular function prologue. When a function is not
being traced, the move t0, ra is not harmful.

performs a series of startup tests on ftrace and The test cases in selftests
has passed on LoongArch.
