The commit adds the new trace_events for TIPC link object:
trace_tipc_link_timeout()
trace_tipc_link_fsm()
trace_tipc_link_reset()
trace_tipc_link_too_silent()
trace_tipc_link_retrans()
trace_tipc_link_bc_ack()
trace_tipc_link_conges()
And the traces for PROTOCOL messages at building and receiving:
trace_tipc_proto_build()
trace_tipc_proto_rcv()
Note:
a) The 'tipc_link_too_silent' event will only happen when the
'silent_intv_cnt' is about to reach the 'abort_limit' value (and the
event is enabled). The benefit for this kind of event is that we can
get an early indication about TIPC link loss issue due to timeout, then
can do some necessary actions for troubleshooting.
For example: To trigger the 'tipc_proto_rcv' when the 'too_silent'
event occurs:
echo 'enable_event:tipc:tipc_proto_rcv' > \
events/tipc/tipc_link_too_silent/trigger
And disable it when TIPC link is reset:
echo 'disable_event:tipc:tipc_proto_rcv' > \
events/tipc/tipc_link_reset/trigger
b) The 'tipc_link_retrans' or 'tipc_link_bc_ack' event is useful to
trace TIPC retransmission issues.
In addition, the commit adds the 'trace_tipc_list/link_dump()' at the
'retransmission failure' case. Then, if the issue occurs, the link
'transmq' along with the link data can be dumped for post-analysis.
These dump events should be enabled by default since it will only take
effect when the failure happens.
The same approach is also applied for the faulty case that the
validation of protocol message is failed.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
