ftrace: Save module init functions kallsyms symbols for tracing
If function tracing is active when the module init functions are freed, then store them to be referenced by kallsyms. As module init functions can now be traced on module load, they were useless: ># echo ':mod:snd_seq' > set_ftrace_filter ># echo function > current_tracer ># modprobe snd_seq ># cat trace # tracer: function # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.037874: 0xffffffffa0860000 <-do_one_initcall modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.037876: 0xffffffffa086004d <-0xffffffffa086000f modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.037876: 0xffffffffa086010d <-0xffffffffa0860018 modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.037877: 0xffffffffa086011a <-0xffffffffa0860021 modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.037877: 0xffffffffa0860080 <-0xffffffffa086002a modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.039523: 0xffffffffa0860400 <-0xffffffffa0860033 modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.039523: 0xffffffffa086038a <-0xffffffffa086041c modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.039591: 0xffffffffa086038a <-0xffffffffa0860436 modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.039657: 0xffffffffa086038a <-0xffffffffa0860450 modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.039719: 0xffffffffa0860127 <-0xffffffffa086003c modprobe-2786 [000] .... 3189.039742: snd_seq_create_kernel_client <-0xffffffffa08601f6 When the output is shown, the kallsyms for the module init functions have already been freed, and the output of the trace can not convert them to their function names. Now this looks like this: # tracer: function # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.243237: alsa_seq_init <-do_one_initcall modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.243239: client_init_data <-alsa_seq_init modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.243240: snd_sequencer_memory_init <-alsa_seq_init modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.243240: snd_seq_queues_init <-alsa_seq_init modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.243240: snd_sequencer_device_init <-alsa_seq_init modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.244860: snd_seq_info_init <-alsa_seq_init modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.244861: create_info_entry <-snd_seq_info_init modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.244936: create_info_entry <-snd_seq_info_init modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.245003: create_info_entry <-snd_seq_info_init modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.245072: snd_seq_system_client_init <-alsa_seq_init modprobe-2463 [002] .... 174.245094: snd_seq_create_kernel_client <-snd_seq_system_client_init Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
