With the rework of how the __string() handles dynamic strings where it
saves off the source string in field in the helper structure[1], the
assignment of that value to the trace event field is stored in the helper
value and does not need to be passed in again.
This means that with:
__string(field, mystring)
Which use to be assigned with __assign_str(field, mystring), no longer
needs the second parameter and it is unused. With this, __assign_str()
will now only get a single parameter.
There's over 700 users of __assign_str() and because coccinelle does not
handle the TRACE_EVENT() macro I ended up using the following sed script:
git grep -l __assign_str | while read a ; do
sed -e 's/\(__assign_str([^,]*[^ ,]\) *,[^;]*/\1)/' $a > /tmp/test-file;
mv /tmp/test-file $a;
done
I then searched for __assign_str() that did not end with ';' as those
were multi line assignments that the sed script above would fail to catch.
Note, the same updates will need to be done for:
__assign_str_len()
__assign_rel_str()
__assign_rel_str_len()
I tested this with both an allmodconfig and an allyesconfig (build only for both).

These are not as critical as the FDB/MDB trace points (I'm not aware of
outstanding VLAN related bugs), but maybe they are useful to somebody,
either debugging something or simply trying to learn more.

DSA performs non-trivial housekeeping of unicast and multicast addresses
on shared (CPU and DSA) ports, and puts a bit of pressure on higher
layers, requiring them to behave correctly (remove these addresses
exactly as many times as they were added). Otherwise, either addresses
linger around forever, or DSA returns -ENOENT complaining that entries
that were already deleted must be deleted again.
To aid debugging, introduce some trace points specifically for FDB and
MDB - that's where some of the bugs still are right now.
Some bugs I have seen were also due to race conditions, see:
- 630fd4822af2 ("net: dsa: flush switchdev workqueue on bridge join error path")
- a2614140dc0f ("net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: flush switchdev FDB workqueue before removing VLAN")
so it would be good to not disturb the timing too much, hence the choice
to use trace points vs regular dev_dbg().
I've had these for some time on my computer in a less polished form, and
they've proven useful. What I found most useful was to enable
CONFIG_BOOTTIME_TRACING, add "trace_event=dsa" to the kernel cmdline,
and run "cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace". This is to debug more
complex environments with network managers started by the init system,
things like that.
