+	             Using the Linux Kernel Tracepoints
+
+			    Mathieu Desnoyers
+
+
+This document introduces Linux Kernel Tracepoints and their use. It provides
+examples of how to insert tracepoints in the kernel and connect probe functions
+to them and provides some examples of probe functions.
+
+
+* Purpose of tracepoints
+
+A tracepoint placed in code provides a hook to call a function (probe) that you
+can provide at runtime. A tracepoint can be "on" (a probe is connected to it) or
+"off" (no probe is attached). When a tracepoint is "off" it has no effect,
+except for adding a tiny time penalty (checking a condition for a branch) and
+space penalty (adding a few bytes for the function call at the end of the
+instrumented function and adds a data structure in a separate section).  When a
+tracepoint is "on", the function you provide is called each time the tracepoint
+is executed, in the execution context of the caller. When the function provided
+ends its execution, it returns to the caller (continuing from the tracepoint
+site).
+
+You can put tracepoints at important locations in the code. They are
+lightweight hooks that can pass an arbitrary number of parameters,
+which prototypes are described in a tracepoint declaration placed in a header
+file.
+
+They can be used for tracing and performance accounting.
+
+
+* Usage
+
+Two elements are required for tracepoints :
+
+- A tracepoint definition, placed in a header file.
+- The tracepoint statement, in C code.
+
+In order to use tracepoints, you should include linux/tracepoint.h.
+
+In include/trace/subsys.h :
+
+#include <linux/tracepoint.h>
+
+DEFINE_TRACE(subsys_eventname,
+	TPPTOTO(int firstarg, struct task_struct *p),
+	TPARGS(firstarg, p));
+
+In subsys/file.c (where the tracing statement must be added) :
+
+#include <trace/subsys.h>
+
+void somefct(void)
+{
+	...
+	trace_subsys_eventname(arg, task);
+	...
+}
+
+Where :
+- subsys_eventname is an identifier unique to your event
+    - subsys is the name of your subsystem.
+    - eventname is the name of the event to trace.
+- TPPTOTO(int firstarg, struct task_struct *p) is the prototype of the function
+  called by this tracepoint.
+- TPARGS(firstarg, p) are the parameters names, same as found in the prototype.
+
+Connecting a function (probe) to a tracepoint is done by providing a probe
+(function to call) for the specific tracepoint through
+register_trace_subsys_eventname().  Removing a probe is done through
+unregister_trace_subsys_eventname(); it will remove the probe sure there is no
+caller left using the probe when it returns. Probe removal is preempt-safe
+because preemption is disabled around the probe call. See the "Probe example"
+section below for a sample probe module.
+
+The tracepoint mechanism supports inserting multiple instances of the same
+tracepoint, but a single definition must be made of a given tracepoint name over
+all the kernel to make sure no type conflict will occur. Name mangling of the
+tracepoints is done using the prototypes to make sure typing is correct.
+Verification of probe type correctness is done at the registration site by the
+compiler. Tracepoints can be put in inline functions, inlined static functions,
+and unrolled loops as well as regular functions.
+
+The naming scheme "subsys_event" is suggested here as a convention intended
+to limit collisions. Tracepoint names are global to the kernel: they are
+considered as being the same whether they are in the core kernel image or in
+modules.
+
+
+* Probe / tracepoint example
+
+See the example provided in samples/tracepoints/src
+
+Compile them with your kernel.
+
+Run, as root :
+modprobe tracepoint-example (insmod order is not important)
+modprobe tracepoint-probe-example
+cat /proc/tracepoint-example (returns an expected error)
+rmmod tracepoint-example tracepoint-probe-example
+dmesg

 Load the driver you want to trace and use it. Mmiotrace will only catch MMIO
 accesses to areas that are ioremapped while mmiotrace is active.
 
-[Unimplemented feature:]
 During tracing you can place comments (markers) into the trace by
-$ echo "X is up" > /debug/tracing/marker
+$ echo "X is up" > /debug/tracing/trace_marker
 This makes it easier to see which part of the (huge) trace corresponds to
 which action. It is recommended to place descriptive markers about what you
 do.
