Subject: [RFC][PATCH 0/2] Syscalls tracing
Date: Sat,  7 Mar 2009 05:52:58 +0100

Here is a first attempt, quick one-shot, to provide a syscall tracing
infrastructure on ftrace.

The RFC prefix is here to reflect its ugliness on various parts.
The compromise between tracing reliabilty and speed is hard to balance.
For example I guess the basic and horrid string mask should be dropped in favour
of something else, which takes care of the volatile strings from the userspace.

But I hope a lot of ideas to make it better will come along this discussion.
