From 2c67dc457bc67367dc8fcd8f471ce2d5bb5f7b2b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Menglong Dong Date: Wed, 15 Oct 2025 16:32:37 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: fprobe: optimization for entry only case MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit For now, fgraph is used for the fprobe, even if we need trace the entry only. However, the performance of ftrace is better than fgraph, and we can use ftrace_ops for this case. Then performance of kprobe-multi increases from 54M to 69M. Before this commit: $ ./benchs/run_bench_trigger.sh kprobe-multi kprobe-multi : 54.663 ± 0.493M/s After this commit: $ ./benchs/run_bench_trigger.sh kprobe-multi kprobe-multi : 69.447 ± 0.143M/s Mitigation is disable during the bench testing above.
