Christoph,

I was using the above information to parse all the available markers in a kernel, but I believe I've found a way where I don't need the marker.h header, so I'm OK with your NACK.

Out of curiosity, what is the kernel infrastructure you believe I should be using to get a list of all available markers in a kernel? Note that I also have a requirement to get a list of all available markers in a kernel that isn't the currently running one.
