Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/4] ftrace: Make recordmcount.c handle __fentry__
Date: Tue, 07 Aug 2012 15:38:46 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120807194058.990674363@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20120807193845.146666357@goodmis.org

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
With gcc 4.6.0 the -mfentry feature places the function profiling
call at the start of the function. When this is used, the call is
to __fentry__ and not mcount.
Change recordmcount.c to record both callers to __fentry__ and
mcount.
