[PATCH -v4 0/9] ftrace for MIPS

From: Wu Zhangjin
Date: Wed Oct 21 2009 - 10:34:38 EST


This patch add basic ftrace support for MIPS, it is on the -v4 revision. which
incorporates the feedbacks from Steven, Ralf, Nicholas, Thomas, Américo Wang,
Zhang Le and Sergei Shtylyov. thanks goes to them!

It includes the following parts:

1. mips specific high precision of trace_clock_local() support

It is based on the clock counter register, and can provide us precision
timestamp. the old one is jiffies based, only provide ms precision.

2. mips specific static, dynamic, graph function tracer support

all of them support 32bit/64bit kernel, but not support modules yet(Steven will
help to fix this part! thanks goes to him). but if you want to have a quick try
on using module with static function tracer, you just need to add -mlong-calls
to KBUILD_CFLAGS.

All of the latest upgrade will be put into this git repo.

Welcome to play with it and give feedback, thanks!

Wu Zhangjin
