I tested your patch and it fixes the issue for me. I went over some
usecases and I didn't think there was a race with tracing_cpu either.
I would love to take part in any future discussions about this topic

Actually this is too complex a fix. If tracing_cpu is set, we want to
trace this cpu. And I'm starting to think we don't even need this
check, because I'm having a hard time seeing how tracing_cpu could be
set without preemption or irqs being disabled, and thus there be no
race.

Anyway, we can just add a check if either irqs are disabled or
interrupts are disabled:

if (!irqs_disabled_flags(*flags) && !preempt_count())
return 0;

Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Have preempt(irqs)off trace preempt disabled
 functions

Joel Fernandes reported that the function tracing of preempt disabled
sections was not being reported when running either the preemptirqsoff or
preemptoff tracers. This was due to the fact that the function tracer
callback for those tracers checked if irqs were disabled before tracing. But
this fails when we want to trace preempt off locations as well.

Joel explained that he wanted to see funcitons where interrupts are enabled
but preemption was disabled. The expected output he wanted:

   <...>-22651d.h1 3419us : preempt_count_sub <-irq_exit
   <...>-22651d..1 3419us : __do_softirq <-irq_exit

   <...>-22651d.s1 3423us : __local_bh_enable <-__do_softirq

There's a comment saying that the irq disabled check is because there's a
possible race that tracing_cpu may be set when the function is executed. But
I don't remember that race. For now, I added a check for preemption being
enabled too to not record the function, as there would be no race if that
was the case. I need to re-investigate this, as I'm now thinking that the
tracing_cpu will always be correct. But no harm in keeping the check for
now, except for the slight performance hit.

[PATCH] trace: irqsoff: Fix function tracing in preempt and preemptirqsoff tracers

2016-03-12 Thread Joel Fernandes 
All functions aren't traced in critical sections where preemption is disabled
and interrupts are enabled in preempt* tracers because current behavior is to
check if interrupts are disabled and if they are not, then we don't trace these
functions. So here we do the correct checks depending on tracer type and allow
these functions to be traced.

One example is when interrupts are enabled before softirq processing, with the
patch, these functions are traced as well.
