| |
Hi,
This updated version of the Linux Kernel Markers mostly adds a unique 16 bits per marker ID and a per-probe marker group.
Christoph, I think the only concern that I do not plan to address immediately is to provide a complet in-kernel user of the markers (blktrace patch does not actually use the markers full potential). I have external patches that provides that, but I don't want to send too much patches at once. Between providing a complete marker/tracer stack and sending small incremental patches, I think the latter is the choice the better suited. This is however an uneasy problem, which looks very much like the chicken and egg problem. :)
If you have concerns with what I recently added to the markers, or if you still strongly feel that I must also send the following patches right away, please let me know.
Mathieu
