2011-09-28	rcu: Add grace-period, quiescent-state, and call_rcu trace events	Paul E. McKenney	1	-3/+3
	Add trace events to record grace-period start and end, quiescent states, CPUs noticing grace-period start and end, grace-period initialization, call_rcu() invocation, tasks blocking in RCU read-side critical sections, tasks exiting those same critical sections, force_quiescent_state() detection of dyntick-idle and offline CPUs, CPUs entering and leaving dyntick-idle mode (except from NMIs), CPUs coming online and going offline, and CPUs being kicked for staying in dyntick-idle mode for too long (as in many weeks, even on 32-bit systems).

McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> rcu: Add the rcu flavor to callback trace events The earlier trace events for registering RCU callbacks and for invoking them did not include the RCU flavor (rcu_bh, rcu_preempt, or rcu_sched). This commit adds the RCU flavor to those trace events. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2011-09-28	rcu: Put names into TINY_RCU structures under RCU_TRACE	Paul E. McKenney	1	-2/+8
	In order to allow event tracing to distinguish between flavors of RCU, we need those names in the relevant RCU data structures. TINY_RCU has avoided them for memory-footprint reasons, so add them only if CONFIG_RCU_TRACE=y. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paul.mckenney@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2011-09-28	rcu: Add event-tracing for RCU callback invocation	Paul E. McKenney	1	-0/+79
	There was recently some controversy about the overhead of invoking RCU callbacks. Add TRACE_EVENT()s to obtain fine-grained timings for the start and stop of a batch of callbacks and also for each callback invoked. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
