[PATCH 13/16] tracing: tracepoints for softirq entry/exit - tracepoints

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Mar 12 2009 - 22:43:20 EST


From: Jason Baron <jbaron@xxxxxxxxxx>

Introduce softirq entry/exit tracepoints. These are useful for
augmenting existing tracers, and to figure out softirq frequencies and
timings.

[
s/irq_softirq_/softirq_/ for trace point names and
Fixed printf format in TRACE_FORMAT macro
