* PR10650: markup some unprivileged-safe tapset functionsFrank Ch. Eigler2009-09-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add /* unprivileged */ to a variety of tapset embedded-c functions, together with uid-assertion-checking code as needed. This is only an initial set, and may need to grow or shrink after further testing. Prototyped-By: Dave Brolley <brolley@redhat.com> * runtime/runtime.h (is_myproc, assert_is_myproc): New macros. * runtime/addr-map.c (lookup_bad_addr): Reject if !is_myproc in unprivileged mode. * runtime/print.c (_stp_print_kernel_info): Add unprivileged mode info. * tapset/DEVGUIDE: Document /* pure */ and /* unprivileged */. * tapset/*.stp: Add /* unprivileged */ here and there, in questionable cases along with an assert_is_myproc().
* PR10177: init/kill time in sleepy context onlyJosh Stone2009-05-201-15/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, _stp_init_time and _stp_kill_time were being called from begin/end/error probes, which will run with preemption disabled. The BUG reported on RT kernels showed that cpufreq_unregister_notifier can end up sleeping, which violates our preemption block. This patch moves the init/kill into systemtap_module_init/exit, where it is safe to sleep. The code maintains a new predicate with the define STAP_NEED_GETTIMEOFDAY, so we don't still incur any timer overhead if it's not used.
* Add selective use of _stp_time_init/kill (PR9822)Josh Stone2009-02-231-0/+68
Our gettimeofday runtime has frequent wakeups to stay in sync with kernel time, but this is wasted effort if gettimeofday is not used in the script. This patch moves the calls to _stp_time_init and _stp_time_kill into begin and end/error probes, which only get pulled in if one of the gettimeofday variants is called.
