[for-next][PATCH 14/17] ring-buffer: Add recording of ring buffer recursion into recursed_functions

[Steven Rostedt]

From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Add a new config RING_BUFFER_RECORD_RECURSION that will place functions that
recurse from the ring buffer into the ftrace recused_functions file.

+	  The ring buffer has its own internal recursion. Although when
+	  recursion happens it wont cause harm because of the protection,
+	  but it does cause an unwanted overhead. Enabling this option will
+	  place where recursion was detected into the ftrace "recursed_functions"
+	  file.
+
+	  This will add more overhead to cases that have recursion.
