Subject: [PATCH] mips: ftrace: fix static function graph tracing
Date: Sat, 24 Mar 2018 17:57:49 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7dc2bb7f712c1e3cfeaafaefe3a3f97668dee549.1521909650.git.mschiffer@universe-factory.net> (raw)
ftrace_graph_caller was never run after calling ftrace_trace_function,
breaking the function graph tracer. Fix this, bringing it in line with the
x86 implementation.
While we're at it, also streamline the control flow of _mcount a bit to
reduce the number of branches.
This issue was reported before:

Caveats: I've only tested this on 32bit; it would be great if someone with
MIPS64 hardware or a working emulator setup could give it a spin. My test
device runs on kernel 4.9.y, but I don't expect any problems applying the
fix to newer kernels, given that this code is basically unchanged since
2014.
I'm not sure what the correct Fixes: line would be. I did not bother to
bisect the issue and could not find the commit introducing it by inspecting
the log (assuming the tracer worked at some point).
