    tracing/events: Add module tracepoints · 7ead8b83
    Li Zefan authored
    Add trace points to trace module_load, module_free, module_get,
    module_put and module_request, and use trace_event facility to
    get the trace output.
    
    Here's the sample output:
    
         TASK-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
            | |       |          |         |

        <...>-1021  [000]    13.840589: module_put: sunrpc call_site=sys_init_module refcnt=-1
        <...>-1027  [000]    13.848098: module_get: sunrpc call_site=try_module_get refcnt=0
        <...>-1027  [000]    13.848308: module_get: sunrpc call_site=get_filesystem refcnt=1
        <...>-1027  [000]    13.848692: module_put: sunrpc call_site=put_filesystem refcnt=0
        ...
     modprobe-2587  [001]  1088.437213: module_load: trace_events_sample F
     modprobe-2587  [001]  1088.437786: module_put: trace_events_sample call_site=sys_init_module refcnt=0
    
    Note:
    
    - the taints flag can be 'F', 'C' and/or 'P' if mod->taints != 0
    
    - the module refcnt is percpu, so it can be negative in a
      specific cpu
