Subject: [PATCH v2 0/5] powerpc/ftrace: Add support for ftrace_modify_call() and a few other fixes
Date: Wed, 21 Mar 2018 16:13:17 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1521627906.git.naveen.n.rao@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

The first two patches fix a kernel oops when function tracing is enabled 
while using KVM and are v2 of the patches posted at:
https://www.mail-archive.com/linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org/msg130548.html

Patch 3 is a new patch that tightens how we detect _mcount() call sites 
for -mprofile-kernel during module loading.

The last two patches implement support for ftrace_caller() to 
conditionally save the register state. The existing ftrace_caller() is 
renamed to ftrace_regs_caller() since we save the entire pt_regs today.  
A new implementation of ftrace_caller() that saves the minimum register 
state is provided. We switch between the two variants through 
ftrace_modify_call(). The necessary support to call into the two 
different variants from modules is also added.
