The outcome of all that was, I > believe, that the kernel should have a static marker infrastructure. Only when it's actually useable. A prerequisite for merging it is having an actual trace transport infrastructure aswell as a few actually useful tracing modules in the kernel tree. Let this count as a vote to merge the markers once we have the infrastructure above ready, it'll be very useful then. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
