[RFC / PATCH] ftrace support on m68knommu

[RFC / PATCH] ftrace support on m68knommu

[Sebastian Siewior]

Hi Ingo, Greg,

This patch series includes ftrace support on m68knommu and is against
ftrace-devel. 

Ingo: irq flags aren't conditional so I guess this is one of the things
that an arch has to implement (patch #2). In that case you can dump the
status as well couldn't you (patch #3)? I'm not sure but it is possible
that I mixed up the IRQs OFF & ON thing :)

These patches were function tested and compile-only-tested after porting
to ftrace-devel.

Sebastian

[PATCH] m68knommu: add FTRACE support

[Sebastian Siewior]

due to a gcc bug or feature, the following patch has to be applied to gcc:

|m68k: remove label generation on -pg
|
|haven't found a reason why this flag is needed. Maybe glibc needs this label.
|However this implementation puts the labels too far away.

I think we really need to add a HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE config for archs to
say that this is supported. Otherwise I imagine that we'll have a list
of archs here.

I'll write up a patch today.

[PATCH] ftrace: also dump the entry->flag field

[Sebastian Siewior]

The data is collected anyway so why not print it?

Hi Sebastian,

These patches look good!  Nice work.
