blktrace: add support for REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES tracing
Currently, REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES operations are not handled in the
blktrace infrastructure, resulting in incorrect or missing operation
labels in ftrace blktrace output. This manifests as write-zeroes
operations appearing with incorrect labels like "N" instead of a
proper "WZ" designation.
This patch adds complete support for REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES across the
blktrace infrastructure:
Add BLK_TC_WRITE_ZEROES trace category in blktrace_api.h and update
BLK_TC_END_V2 marker accordingly
Map REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES to BLK_TC_WRITE_ZEROES in __blk_add_trace()
to ensure proper trace event categorization
Update fill_rwbs() to generate "WZ" label for write-zeroes operations
in ftrace output, making them easily identifiable
Add "write-zeroes" string mapping in act_to_str array for debugfs
filter interface
Update blk_fill_rwbs() to handle REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES for block layer
event tracing
With this fix, write-zeroes operations are now correctly traced and
displayed.
