From a0343e823184070f55364d8359f832dcb33c57c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2008 23:53:16 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] tracing/function-graph-tracer: add a new .irqentry.text section Impact: let the function-graph-tracer be aware of the irq entrypoints Add a new .irqentry.text section to store the irq entrypoints functions inside the same section. This way, the tracer will be able to signal an interrupts triggering on output by recognizing these entrypoints. Also, make this section recordable for dynamic tracing.
