Subject: [RFA][PATCH 22/27] microblaze: ftrace: Remove check of obsolete variable function_trace_stop

From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <[email protected]>

Nothing sets function_trace_stop to disable function tracing anymore.
Remove the check for it in the arch code.

[ Please test this on your arch ]

Anyway, as there is no more reason to set function_trace_stop it is time
to remove it. Unfortunately it's in several archs in assembly. Most of
the assembly looks rather straight forward and I removed them myself.
But I was only able to compile test them (for archs: arm64, metag, and
microblaze I do not have my cross tools set up for them and did not
even compile test it). But I would really love it if people can
download their patch and test it out. You only need the patches that go
against your arch and to really test it, also include the patch titled:

ftrace: Remove check for HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST

Otherwise your arch patch will call the list op that still does the
check. That is, if you want to test suspend and resume on your arch.

As you may see, there are patches to the ftrace infrastructure that
depend on the arch patches being implemented. I removed the
functionality from the infrastructure, then removed it from the archs,
and then finally removed the existence of the function_trace_stop
variable, which would cause the archs to fail to compile if that were
to go first.

If you can test your arch and give me your acked-by, I would appreciate
it. Otherwise, if you need this to go through your tree, I would ask you
to set up a dedicated branch that I can pull from to keep this order
intact.

Michal,

Can you please test and ack this and patch 6 of this series. Otherwise I
may have to stip it out of the series which will break the build on
microblaze.

You can test my branch at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace.git
rfc/remove-function-trace-stop

I have tested this full branch and there is no issue on Microblaze that's why
