Was looking at this on current kernels and debugging mount is probably fine for developers (or users) - plenty of debug messages get printed via the dynamic ftrace points. In practice some would prefer less noisy trace logs so the minimum set for some would be something like this (which already works with current cifs). If we want to add some default log messages on mount to dmesg instead of the trace-cmd log, maybe we should log them at a slightly less noisy level (as we see with xfs and btrfs) so they will be more log friendly root@smf-Thinkpad~/# trace-cmd record -e smb3_enter* -e smb3_exit* Hit Ctrl^C to stop recording root@smf-Thinkpad:~/# trace-cmd show # tracer: nop # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | mount.cifs-14199 [002] .... 97642.728411: smb3_enter: cifs_mount: xid=20 mount.cifs-14199 [002] .... 97642.728669: smb3_enter: cifs_get_smb_ses: xid=21 mount.cifs-14199 [003] .... 97642.742336: smb3_exit_done: cifs_get_smb_ses: xid=21 mount.cifs-14199 [003] .... 97642.742343: smb3_enter: cifs_setup_ipc: xid=22 mount.cifs-14199 [003] .... 97642.742530: smb3_exit_done: cifs_setup_ipc: xid=22 mount.cifs-14199 [003] .... 97642.742532: smb3_enter: cifs_get_tcon: xid=23 mount.cifs-14199 [003] .... 97642.742674: smb3_exit_done: cifs_get_tcon: xid=23 mount.cifs-14199 [003] .... 97642.743267: smb3_exit_done: cifs_mount: xid=20 mount.cifs-14199 [003] .... 97642.743311: smb3_enter: cifs_root_iget: xid=24 mount.cifs-14199 [003] .... 97642.743471: smb3_exit_done: cifs_root_iget: xid=24 -- Thanks, Steve
