Care to explain how I can use to implement the equivalent of this: @@ -1709,6 +1712,7 @@ switch_tasks: ++*switch_count; prepare_arch_switch(rq, next); + TRACE_SCHEDCHANGE(prev, next); prev = context_switch(rq, prev, next); barrier(); Also, care to explain how kprobes can be used to access same data without having to actually customize a probe point for every binary?
