I'll write up a patch against stable, and as soon as it gets into Linus's tree, it should also be pulled into stable as well. Without the patch, some archs will not be able to perform any tracing. There is an alignment issue that will cause the ring buffer to fail to commit any transactions. -- Steve The following patches are in: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-2.6-trace.git branch: tip/devel Lai Jiangshan (1): trace_workqueue: use percpu data for workqueue stat Markus Metzger (6): x86, ftrace, hw-branch-tracer: support hotplug cpus x86, ftrace, hw-branch-tracer: dump trace on oops x86, ftrace, hw-branch-tracer: reset trace buffer on close x86, ftrace, hw-branch-tracer: change trace format x86, ftrace, hw-branch-tracer: documentation x86, ds, bts: cleanup DS configuration Steven Rostedt (1): ring-buffer: fix alignment problem ---- Documentation/ftrace.txt | 74 ++++++++++++++++ arch/x86/kernel/ds.c | 31 ++++--- arch/x86/kernel/dumpstack.c | 6 ++ include/linux/ftrace.h | 13 +++ kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c | 2 +- kernel/trace/trace.h | 1 - kernel/trace/trace_hw_branches.c | 173 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------- kernel/trace/trace_workqueue.c | 64 +++++++-------- 8 files changed, 281 insertions(+), 83 deletions(-) --
