Subject[PATCH] fgraph: record function return value
Date
This patch adds a new trace option 'funcgraph-retval' and is disabled by
default. When this option is enabled, fgraph tracer will show the return
value of each function. This is useful to find/analyze a original error
source in a call graph.

One limitation is that kernel doesn't know the prototype of functions. So
fgraph assumes all functions have a retvalue of type int. You must ignore
the value of *void* function. And if the retvalue looks like an error code
then both hexadecimal and decimal number are displayed.

In this patch, only x86 and ARM platforms are supported.

Here is example showing the error is caused by vmx_create_vcpu() and the
error code is -5 (-EIO).

with echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/options/funcgraph-retval

3) | kvm_vm_ioctl() {
3) | mutex_lock() {
3) | _cond_resched() {
3) 0.234 us | rcu_all_qs(); /* ret=0x80000000 */
3) 0.704 us | } /* ret=0x0 */
3) 1.226 us | } /* ret=0x0 */
3) 0.247 us | mutex_unlock(); /* ret=0xffff8880738ed040 */
3) | kvm_arch_vcpu_create() {
3) | vmx_create_vcpu() {
3) + 17.969 us | kmem_cache_alloc(); /* ret=0xffff88813a980040 */
3) + 15.948 us | kmem_cache_alloc(); /* ret=0xffff88813aa99200 */
3) 0.653 us | allocate_vpid.part.88(); /* ret=0x1 */
3) 6.964 us | kvm_vcpu_init(); /* ret=0xfffffffb */
