ftrace: fix trace_nop config select
ftrace: perform an initialization for ftrace to enable it
Currently "kill <sig> -1" kills processes in all namespaces and breaks the
isolation of namespaces. Earlier attempt to fix this was discussed at:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/23/148
As suggested by Oleg Nesterov in that thread, use "task_pid_vnr() > 1"
check since task_pid_vnr() returns 0 if process is outside the caller's
namespace.

profile_init() calls in to alloc_bootmem() on early initialization. While
alloc_bootmem() is __init, the reference itself is safe in that it is
tucked below a !slab_is_available() check. So, flag profile_init() as
__ref.

Impact: build fix on non-function-tracing architectures
The trace_nop is the tracer that is defined when no tracer is set in
the ftrace infrastructure.
The trace_nop was mistakenly selected by HAVE_FTRACE due to the confusion
between ftrace infrastructure and the ftrace function tracer (which has
been solved by renaming the function tracer).
This patch changes the select to the approriate TRACING.
This patch should fix compile errors on architectures that do not define
the FUNCTION_TRACER.

Impact: corrects a bug which made the non-dyn function tracer not functional
With latest git, the non-dynamic function tracer didn't get any trace.
The problem was the fact that ftrace_enabled wasn't initialized to 1
because ftrace hasn't any init function when DYNAMIC_FTRACE is disabled.
So when a tracer tries to register an ftrace_ops struct,
__register_ftrace_function failed to set the hook.
This patch corrects it by setting an init function to initialize
ftrace during the boot.

The commit (in linux-tip) c2931e05ec
( ftrace: return an error when setting a nonexistent tracer )
added useful code that would error when a bad tracer was written into
the current_tracer file.
But this had a bug if the amount written was more than the amount read by
that code. The first iteration would set the tracer correctly, but since
it did not consume the rest of what was written (usually whitespace), the
userspace utility would continue to write what was not consumed. This
second iteration would fail to find a tracer and return -EINVAL. Funny
thing is that the tracer would have already been set.
This patch just consumes all the data that is written to the file.

Impact: fix lockdep lock-api-caller output when irqsoff tracing is enabled
81d68a96 "ftrace: trace irq disabled critical timings" added wrappers around
trace_hardirqs_on/off_caller. However these functions use
__builtin_return_address(0) to figure out which function actually disabled
or enabled irqs. The result is that we save the ips of trace_hardirqs_on/off
instead of the real caller. Not very helpful.
However since the patch from Steven the ip already gets passed. So use that
and get rid of __builtin_return_address(0) in these two functions.

Impact: build fix on Alpha
When tracing is enabled, some arch have included <linux/irqflags.h>
on their <asm/system.h> but others like alpha or m68k don't.
Build error on alpha:
kernel/trace/trace.c: In function 'tracing_cpumask_write':
kernel/trace/trace.c:2145: error: implicit declaration of function 'raw_local_irq_disable'
kernel/trace/trace.c:2162: error: implicit declaration of function 'raw_local_irq_enable'
Tested on Alpha through a cross-compiler (should correct a similar issue on m68k).

Impact: fix kernel crash that can trigger during tracing
If we try to remove a probe that has not been already registered,
the tracepoint_entry_remove_probe() function will dereference a NULL
pointer.
Check the probe before removing it to avoid crashes.

This reverts commit a802dd0eb5 by moving
the call to init_workqueues() back where it belongs - after SMP has been
initialized.
It also moves stop_machine_init() - which needs workqueues - to a later
phase using a core_initcall() instead of early_initcall(). That should
satisfy all ordering requirements, and was apparently the reason why
init_workqueues() was moved to be too early.

this warning:
kernel/trace/ftrace.c:189: warning: ‘frozen_record_count’ defined but not used
triggers because frozen_record_count is only used in the KCONFIG_MARKERS
case. Move the variable it there.
Alas, this frozen-record facility seems to have little use. The
frozen_record_count variable is not used by anything, nor the flags.
So this section might need a bit of dead-code-removal care as well.

Since we moved wakeup preemption back to virtual time, it makes sense to move
the buddy stuff back as well. The purpose of the buddy scheduling is to allow
a quickly scheduling pair of tasks to run away from the group as far as a
regular busy task would be allowed under wakeup preemption.
This has the advantage that the pair can ping-pong for a while, enjoying
cache-hotness. Without buddy scheduling other tasks would interleave destroying
the cache.
Also, it saves a word in cfs_rq.
