[PATCH v8 04/16] tracing: add static function tracer support for MIPS

From: Wu Zhangjin
Date: Sat Nov 14 2009 - 01:34:37 EST


From: Wu Zhangjin <wuzhangjin@xxxxxxxxx>

If -pg of gcc is enabled with CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=y. a calling to
_mcount will be inserted into each kernel function. so, there is a
possibility to trace the kernel functions in _mcount.

This patch add the MIPS specific _mcount support for static function
tracing. by default, ftrace_trace_function is initialized as
ftrace_stub(an empty function), so, the default _mcount will introduce
very little overhead. after enabling ftrace in user-space, it will jump
to a real tracing function and do static function tracing for us.

and -ffunction-sections is incompatible with -pg, so, disable it when
ftracer is enabled.
