      tracing/histogram: Fix sorting on old "cpu" value · 1d1898f6
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored
      When trying to add a histogram against an event with the "cpu" field, it
      was impossible due to "cpu" being a keyword to key off of the running CPU.
      So to fix this, it was changed to "common_cpu" to match the other generic
      fields (like "common_pid"). But since some scripts used "cpu" for keying
      off of the CPU (for events that did not have "cpu" as a field, which is
      most of them), a backward compatibility trick was added such that if "cpu"
      was used as a key, and the event did not have "cpu" as a field name, then
      it would fallback and switch over to "common_cpu".
      
      This fix has a couple of subtle bugs. One was that when switching over to
      "common_cpu", it did not change the field name, it just set a flag. But
      the code still found a "cpu" field. The "cpu" field is used for filtering
      and is returned when the event does not have a "cpu" field.
      
      This was found by:
      
        # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
        # echo hist:key=cpu,pid:sort=cpu > events/sched/sched_wakeup/trigger
        # cat events/sched/sched_wakeup/hist
      
      Which showed the histogram unsorted:
      
      { cpu:         19, pid:       1175 } hitcount:          1
      { cpu:          6, pid:        239 } hitcount:          2
      { cpu:         23, pid:       1186 } hitcount:         14
      { cpu:         12, pid:        249 } hitcount:          2
      { cpu:          3, pid:        994 } hitcount:          5
      
      Instead of hard coding the "cpu" checks, take advantage of the fact that
      trace_event_field_field() returns a special field for "cpu" and "CPU" if
      the event does not have "cpu" as a field. This special field has the
      "filter_type" of "FILTER_CPU". Check that to test if the returned field is
      of the CPU type instead of doing the string compare.
      
      Also, fix the sorting bug by testing for the hist_field flag of
      HIST_FIELD_FL_CPU when setting up the sort routine. Otherwise it will use
      the special CPU field to know what compare routine to use, and since that
      special field does not have a size, it returns tracing_map_cmp_none.

      Pull ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt:
       "Fix s390 breakage from sorting mcount tables.
      
        The latest merge of the tracing tree sorts the mcount table at build
        time. But s390 appears to do things differently (like always) and
        replaces the sorted table back to the original unsorted one. As the
        ftrace algorithm depends on it being sorted, bad things happen when it
        is not, and s390 experienced those bad things.
      
        Add a new config to tell the boot if the mcount table is sorted or
        not, and allow s390 to opt out of it"

      ftrace: Fix assuming build time sort works for s390 · 6b9b6413
      Steven Rostedt (Google) authored
      To speed up the boot process, as mcount_loc needs to be sorted for ftrace
      to work properly, sorting it at build time is more efficient than boot up
      and can save milliseconds of time. Unfortunately, this change broke s390
      as it will modify the mcount_loc location after the sorting takes place
      and will put back the unsorted locations. Since the sorting is skipped at
      boot up if it is believed that it was sorted at run time, ftrace can crash
      as its algorithms are dependent on the list being sorted.
      
      Add a new config BUILDTIME_MCOUNT_SORT that is set when
      BUILDTIME_TABLE_SORT but not if S390 is set. Use this config to determine
      if sorting should take place at boot up.
