Developers have been asking for the ability in the ftrace event tracer to display names of bits in a flags variable. Instead of printing out c2, it would be easier to read FOO|BAR|GOO, assuming that FOO is bit 1, BAR is bit 6 and GOO is bit 7. Some examples where this would be useful are the state flags in a context switch, kmalloc flags, and even permision flags in accessing files. [ v2 changes include: Frederic Weisbecker's idea of using a mask instead of bits, thus we can output GFP_KERNEL instead of GPF_WAIT|GFP_IO|GFP_FS. Li Zefan's idea of allowing the caller of __print_flags to add their own delimiter (or no delimiter) where we can get for file permissions rwx instead of r|w|x. ] [ v3 changes: Christoph Hellwig's idea of using an array instead of va_args. ] [ Impact: better displaying of flags in trace output ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> |
