ftrace: add stack tracer
This is another tracer using the ftrace infrastructure, that examines at each function call the size of the stack. If the stack use is greater than the previous max it is recorded. You can always see (and set) the max stack size seen. By setting it to zero will start the recording again. The backtrace is also available. For example: # cat /debug/tracing/stack_max_size 1856 # cat /debug/tracing/stack_trace [<c027764d>] stack_trace_call+0x8f/0x101 [<c021b966>] ftrace_call+0x5/0x8 [<c02553cc>] clocksource_get_next+0x12/0x48 [<c02542a5>] update_wall_time+0x538/0x6d1 [<c0245913>] do_timer+0x23/0xb0 [<c0257657>] tick_do_update_jiffies64+0xd9/0xf1 [<c02576b9>] tick_sched_timer+0x4a/0xad [<c0250fe6>] __run_hrtimer+0x3e/0x75 [<c02518ed>] hrtimer_interrupt+0xf1/0x154 [<c022c870>] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x71/0x84 [<c021b7e9>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x2d/0x34 [<c0238597>] finish_task_switch+0x29/0xa0 [<c05abd13>] schedule+0x765/0x7be [<c05abfca>] schedule_timeout+0x1b/0x90 [<c05ab4d4>] wait_for_common+0xab/0x101 [<c05ab5ac>] wait_for_completion+0x12/0x14 [<c033cfc3>] blk_execute_rq+0x84/0x99 [<c0402470>] scsi_execute+0xc2/0x105 [<c040250a>] scsi_execute_req+0x57/0x7f [<c043afe0>] sr_test_unit_ready+0x3e/0x97 [<c043bbd6>] sr_media_change+0x43/0x205 [<c046b59f>] media_changed+0x48/0x77 [<c046b5ff>] cdrom_media_changed+0x31/0x37 [<c043b091>] sr_block_media_changed+0x16/0x18 [<c02b9e69>] check_disk_change+0x1b/0x63 [<c046f4c3>] cdrom_open+0x7a1/0x806 [<c043b148>] sr_block_open+0x78/0x8d [<c02ba4c0>] do_open+0x90/0x257 [<c02ba869>] blkdev_open+0x2d/0x56 [<c0296a1f>] __dentry_open+0x14d/0x23c [<c0296b32>] nameidata_to_filp+0x24/0x38 [<c02a1c68>] do_filp_open+0x347/0x626 [<c02967ef>] do_sys_open+0x47/0xbc [<c02968b0>] sys_open+0x23/0x2b [<c021aadd>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x26 I've tested this on both x86_64 and i386.
