[ Upstream commitdb3efdcf70] Introduce a tracepoint for icmp_send, which can help users to get more detail information conveniently when icmp abnormal events happen. 1. Giving an usecase example: ============================= When an application experiences packet loss due to an unreachable UDP destination port, the kernel will send an exception message through the icmp_send function. By adding a trace point for icmp_send, developers or system administrators can obtain detailed information about the UDP packet loss, including the type, code, source address, destination address, source port, and destination port. This facilitates the trouble-shooting of UDP packet loss issues especially for those network-service applications. 2. Operation Instructions: ========================== Switch to the tracing directory. cd /sys/kernel/tracing Filter for destination port unreachable. echo "type==3 && code==3" > events/icmp/icmp_send/filter Enable trace event. echo 1 > events/icmp/icmp_send/enable 3. Result View: ================ udp_client_erro-11370 [002] ...s.12 124.728002: icmp_send: icmp_send: type=3, code=3.

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.
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.
