Where type can be any 83 * primitive type (integer, long or pointer). 84 * 85 * __field(int, foo) 86 * 87 * __entry->foo = 5; 88 * 89 * __field_struct : This can be any static complex data type (struct, union 90 * but not an array). Be careful using complex types, as each 91 * event is limited in size, and copying large amounts of data 92 * into the ring buffer can slow things down. 93 * 94 * __field_struct(struct bar, foo) 95 * 96 * __entry->bar.x = y; 97 98 * __array: There are three fields (type, name, size). The type is the 99 * type of elements in the array, the name is the name of the array. 100 * size is the number of items in the array (not the total size). 101 * 102 * __array( char, foo, 10) is the same as saying: char foo[10]; 103 * 104 * Assigning arrays can be done like any array: 105 * 106 * __entry->foo[0] = 'a'; 107 * 108 * memcpy(__entry->foo, bar, 10); 109 * 110 * __dynamic_array: This is similar to array, but can vary its size from 111 * instance to instance of the tracepoint being called. 112 * Like __array, this too has three elements (type, name, size); 113 * type is the type of the element, name is the name of the array. 114 * The size is different than __array. It is not a static number, 115 * but the algorithm to figure out the length of the array for the 116 * specific instance of tracepoint. Again, size is the number of 117 * items in the array, not the total length in bytes. 118 * 119 * __dynamic_array( int, foo, bar) is similar to: int foo[bar]; 120 * 121 * Note, unlike arrays, you must use the __get_dynamic_array() macro 122 * to access the array. 123 * 124 * memcpy(__get_dynamic_array(foo), bar, 10); 125 * 126 * Notice, that "__entry" is not needed here. 127 * 128 * __string: This is a special kind of __dynamic_array. It expects to 129 * have a null terminated character array passed to it (it allows 130 * for NULL too, which would be converted into "(null)"). __string 131 * takes two parameter (name, src), where name is the name of 132 * the string saved, and src is the string to copy into the 133 * ring buffer. 134 * 135 * __string(foo, bar) is similar to: strcpy(foo, bar) 136 * 137 * To assign a string, use the helper macro __assign_str(). 138 * 139 * __assign_str(foo, bar); 140 * 141 * In most cases, the __assign_str() macro will take the same 142 * parameters as the __string() macro had to declare the string. 143 * 144 * __bitmask: This is another kind of __dynamic_array, but it expects 145 * an array of longs, and the number of bits to parse. It takes 146 * two parameters (name, nr_bits), where name is the name of the 147 * bitmask to save, and the nr_bits is the number of bits to record. 148 * 149 * __bitmask(target_cpu, nr_cpumask_bits) 150 * 151 * To assign a bitmask, use the __assign_bitmask() helper macro. 152 * 153 * __assign_bitmask(target_cpus, cpumask_bits(bar), nr_cpumask_bits); 154 * 155 * 156 * fast_assign: This is a C like function that is used to store the items 157 * into the ring buffer. A special variable called "__entry" will be the 158 * structure that points into the ring buffer and has the same fields as 159 * described by the struct part of TRACE_EVENT above. 160 * 161 * printk: This is a way to print out the data in pretty print. This is 162 * useful if the system crashes and you are logging via a serial line, 163 * the data can be printed to the console using this "printk" method. 164 * This is also used to print out the data from the trace files. 165 * Again, the __entry macro is used to access the data from the ring buffer. 166 * 167 * Note, __dynamic_array, __string, and __bitmask require special helpers 168 * to access the data. 169 * 170 * For __dynamic_array(int, foo, bar) use __get_dynamic_array(foo) 171 * Use __get_dynamic_array_len(foo) to get the length of the array 172 * saved. Note, __get_dynamic_array_len() returns the total allocated 173 * length of the dynamic array; __print_array() expects the second 174 * parameter to be the number of elements. To get that, the array length 175 * needs to be divided by the element size. 176 * 177 * For __string(foo, bar) use __get_str(foo) 178 * 179 * For __bitmask(target_cpus, nr_cpumask_bits) use __get_bitmask(target_cpus) 180 * 181 * 182 * Note, that for both the assign and the printk, __entry is the handler 183 * to the data structure in the ring buffer, and is defined by the 184 * TP_STRUCT__entry. 185 */ 186 187 /* 188 * It is OK to have helper functions in the file, but they need to be protected 189 * from being defined more than once.
