Commit Message

Jianfeng Wang July 17, 2024, 11:17 p.m. UTC 
The upstream Linux kernel has introduced a new feature, i.e.
funcgraph-retval for the function_graph tracer. (Commit ID:
a1be9ccc57f07d54278be34eed6bd679bc941c97). With this feature, the
function_graph tracer can record each function's return value along
with its execution time at the function_graph exit handler. This is
useful for debugging kernel issues, such as syscall errors.

This commit enhances 'trace-cmd report' by supporting the
function_graph retval feature if the underlying kernel supports it.
Once the feature is supported, 'trace-cmd report' will print each
function's return value in this format: '(ret=retval)" at the end
of every funcgraph leaf entry and exit event. Error codes are
printed in decimal, while others are printed in hex.

Example usage:
*  Record
> trace-cmd record -p function_graph -P <pid>

The recording process is not changed: trace-cmd can communicate
with the kernel to get the actual funcgraph_exit event format.
If the kernel supports ftrace-retval, trace-cmd will use the
updated event format that has "retval" field.

* Report
> trace-cmd report -O fgraph:depth -O fgraph:tailprint

If the kernel supports this feature, the output looks like this:

 <...>-1136215 [006] ..... 1724848.377495: funcgraph_entry:                   |        __cond_resched() { (3)
