- Remove unneeded goto out statements
Over time, the logic was restructured but left a "goto out" where the
out label simply did a "return ret;". Instead of jumping to this out
label, simply return immediately and remove the out label.
- Add guard(ring_buffer_nest)
Some calls to the tracing ring buffer can happen when the ring buffer is
already being written to at the same context (for example, a
trace_printk() in between a ring_buffer_lock_reserve() and a
ring_buffer_unlock_commit()).
In order to not trigger the recursion detection, these functions use
ring_buffer_nest_start() and ring_buffer_nest_end(). Create a guard() for
these functions so that their use cases can be simplified and not need to
use goto for the release.
- Clean up the tracing code with guard() and __free() logic
There were several locations that were prime candidates for using guard()
and __free() helpers. Switch them over to use them.
- Fix output of function argument traces for unsigned int values
The function tracer with "func-args" option set will record up to 6 argument
registers and then use BTF to format them for human consumption when the
trace file is read. There's several arguments that are "unsigned long" and
even "unsigned int" that are either and address or a mask. It is easier to
understand if they were printed using hexadecimal instead of decimal.
The old method just printed all non-pointer values as signed integers,
which made it even worse for unsigned integers.
For instance, instead of:
__local_bh_disable_ip(ip=-2127311112, cnt=256) <-handle_softirqs
Show:
__local_bh_disable_ip(ip=0xffffffff8133cef8, cnt=0x100) <-handle_softirqs
