random32: add a tracepoint for prandom_u32()
There has been some heat around prandom_u32() lately, and some people were wondering if there was a simple way to determine how often it was used, before considering making it maybe 10 times more expensive. This tracepoint exports the generated pseudo random value. Tested: perf list | grep prandom_u32 random:prandom_u32 [Tracepoint event] perf record -a [-g] [-C1] -e random:prandom_u32 sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 0 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 259.748 MB perf.data (924087 samples) ] perf report --nochildren ... 97.67% ksoftirqd/1 [kernel.vmlinux] [k] prandom_u32 | ---prandom_u32 prandom_u32 | |--48.86%--tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock | tcp_check_req | tcp_v4_rcv | ... --48.81%--tcp_conn_request tcp_v4_conn_request tcp_rcv_state_process ... perf script Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Cc: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> Tested-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
