Subject: FTrace on MPC8xx
Date: Wed, 13 Apr 2011 16:32:21 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201104131632.21350.ml@stefan-roese.de> (raw)

Hi,

I noticed that ftrace doesn't seem to work on MPC8xx. I'm trying to use it on 
an MPC855T board, but ftrace oopses upon startup:

[    0.028785] ftrace: allocating 10312 entries in 31 pages

This is on a 2.6.38 kernel (2.6.32 fails too). Debugging shows that 
__copy_tofrom_user() fails with return code 4 (called via 
ftrace_modify_code()).

Before digging deeper: Has anybody tried/tested ftrace on MPC8xx? Any ideas 
what going wrong here?

Thanks.

Best regards,
Stefan
