Subject: Re: [PATCH 0/4][RFC] event tracer

Hi -

It looks like a good compromise, a dual to the trace_mark_tp
prototype, and a plausible replacement for markers.  Thank you.  The
main thing this would lose is a callback API to intercept generic
varargs event flavour, which we in systemtap land enjoy using, but
before too long we would make do.
