[PATCH v4] ARM: support syscall tracing

Mon Aug 20 16:35:52 EDT 2012


As specified by ftrace-design.txt, TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT was
added, as well as NR_syscalls in asm/unistd.h.  Additionally,
__sys_trace was modified to call trace_sys_enter and
trace_sys_exit when appropriate.

Tests #2 - #4 of "perf test" now complete successfully.

This patch is an update of one I posted some months ago.  It has been
rebased to Linus's current master branch.
- v2: Implemented changes suggested by Will:
  - Folded _TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT into _TIF_SYSCALL_WORK to save an
    instruction in entry-common.S.
  - Moved calls to trace_sys_{enter,exit} to syscall_trace_{enter,exit}
- v3:
  - Set current_thread_info()->syscall before checking TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE.
  - Pass the original syscall number into trace_sys_{enter,exit}, not
    the return value from ptrace_syscall_trace().
- v4: More changes based on Will's feedback:
  - Reverted to passing the return value from ptrace_syscall_trace() into
    trace_sys_{enter,exit}.
  - Removed inadvertent whitespace change.
