Cheng Jian f486088d38 ftrace: Enable trampoline when rec count returns back to one
[ Upstream commit a124692b69 ]

Custom trampolines can only be enabled if there is only a single ops
attached to it. If there's only a single callback registered to a function,
and the ops has a trampoline registered for it, then we can call the
trampoline directly. This is very useful for improving the performance of
ftrace and livepatch.

If more than one callback is registered to a function, the general
trampoline is used, and the custom trampoline is not restored back to the
direct call even if all the other callbacks were unregistered and we are
back to one callback for the function.

To fix this, set FTRACE_FL_TRAMP flag if rec count is decremented
to one, and the ops that left has a trampoline.

Testing After this patch :

insmod livepatch_unshare_files.ko
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/enabled_functions

	unshare_files (1) R I	tramp: 0xffffffffc0000000(klp_ftrace_handler+0x0/0xa0) ->ftrace_ops_assist_func+0x0/0xf0

echo unshare_files > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/enabled_functions

	unshare_files (2) R I ->ftrace_ops_list_func+0x0/0x150

echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/enabled_functions

	unshare_files (1) R I	tramp: 0xffffffffc0000000(klp_ftrace_handler+0x0/0xa0) ->ftrace_ops_assist_func+0x0/0xf0

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
