6556d1df88 tracing: fix the block trace points print size
The sector field is either u64 or unsigned long depending on
the arch. This patch casts the sector to unsigned long long to
prevent the printf warnings.

[ Impact: remove compile warnings ]

55782138e4 tracing/events: convert block trace points to TRACE_EVENT()
TRACE_EVENT is a more generic way to define tracepoints. Doing so adds
these new capabilities to this tracepoint:

  - zero-copy and per-cpu splice() tracing
  - binary tracing without printf overhead
  - structured logging records exposed under /debug/tracing/events
  - trace events embedded in function tracer output and other plugins
  - user-defined, per tracepoint filter expressions
  ...

Cons:

  - no dev_t info for the output of plug, unplug_timer and unplug_io events.
    no dev_t info for getrq and sleeprq events if bio == NULL.
    no dev_t info for rq_abort,...,rq_requeue events if rq->rq_disk == NULL.

    This is mainly because we can't get the deivce from a request queue.
    But this may change in the future.

  - A packet command is converted to a string in TP_assign, not TP_print.
    While blktrace do the convertion just before output.

    Since pc requests should be rather rare, this is not a big issue.

  - In blktrace, an event can have 2 different print formats, but a TRACE_EVENT
    has a unique format, which means we have some unused data in a trace entry.

    The overhead is minimized by using __dynamic_array() instead of __array().

I've benchmarked the ioctl blktrace vs the splice based TRACE_EVENT tracing:

      dd                   dd + ioctl blktrace       dd + TRACE_EVENT (splice)
1     7.36s, 42.7 MB/s     7.50s, 42.0 MB/s          7.41s, 42.5 MB/s
2     7.43s, 42.3 MB/s     7.48s, 42.1 MB/s          7.43s, 42.4 MB/s
3     7.38s, 42.6 MB/s     7.45s, 42.2 MB/s          7.41s, 42.5 MB/s

So the overhead of tracing is very small, and no regression when using
those trace events vs blktrace.

And the binary output of TRACE_EVENT is much smaller than blktrace:

 # ls -l -h
 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8.8M 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.0
 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 195K 06-09 13:24 sda.blktrace.1
 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2.7M 06-09 13:25 trace_splice.out

Changelog from v2 -> v3:

- use the newly introduced __dynamic_array().

Changelog from v1 -> v2:

- use __string() instead of __array() to minimize the memory required
  to store hex dump of rq->cmd().

- support large pc requests.

- add missing blk_fill_rwbs_rq() in block_rq_requeue TRACE_EVENT.

- some cleanups.

1d080d6c31 tracing: remove redundant SOFTIRQ from softirq event traces
After converting the softirq tracer to use te flags options, this
caused a regression with the name. Since the flag was used directly
it was printed out (i.e. HRTIMER_SOFTIRQ).

This patch only shows the softirq name without the SOFTIRQ part.

fb39125fd7 ftrace, workqueuetrace: make workqueue tracepoints use TRACE_EVENT macro
v3: zhaolei@cn.fujitsu.com: Change TRACE_EVENT definition to new format
    introduced by Steven Rostedt: consolidate trace and trace_event headers
v2: kosaki@jp.fujitsu.com: print the function names instead of addr, and zap
    the work addr
v1: zhaolei@cn.fujitsu.com: Make workqueue tracepoints use TRACE_EVENT macro

TRACE_EVENT is a more generic way to define tracepoints.
Doing so adds these new capabilities to the tracepoints:

  - zero-copy and per-cpu splice() tracing
  - binary tracing without printf overhead
  - structured logging records exposed under /debug/tracing/events
  - trace events embedded in function tracer output and other plugins
  - user-defined, per tracepoint filter expressions

Then, this patch converts DEFINE_TRACE to TRACE_EVENT in workqueue related
tracepoints.

c2adae0970 tracing: convert irq events to use __print_symbolic
The recording of the names at trace time is inefficient. This patch
implements the softirq event recording to only record the vector
and then use the __print_symbolic interface to print out the names.

62ba180e80 tracing: add flag output for kmem events
This patch changes the output for gfp_flags from being a simple hex value
to the actual names.

  gfp_flags=GFP_ATOMIC  instead of gfp_flags=00000020

And even

  gfp_flags=GFP_KERNEL instead of gfp_flags=000000d0

(Thanks to Frederic Weisbecker for pointing out that the first version
 had a bad order of GFP masks)
