The instance node also accepts event nodes so that each instance
|
||||
can customize its event tracing.
|
||||
|
||||
With the trigger action and kprobes, you can trace function-graph while
|
||||
a function is called. For example, this will trace all function calls in
|
||||
the pci_proc_init()::
|
||||
|
||||
ftrace {
|
||||
tracing_on = 0
|
||||
tracer = function_graph
|
||||
event.kprobes {
|
||||
start_event {
|
||||
probes = "pci_proc_init"
|
||||
actions = "traceon"
|
||||
}
|
||||
end_event {
|
||||
probes = "pci_proc_init%return"
|
||||
actions = "traceoff"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|

|

This boot-time tracing also supports ftrace kernel parameters via boot
|
||||
config.

For example, following kernel parameters::
