SubjectRe: [PATCH][v3] blktrace: conversion to tracepoints

FYI: I tested this on a 16-way AMD x86_64 box (128GB RAM, a couple of
Smart Array (CCISS) P800's). Running Jens' for-2.6.29 git tree versus a
recent Linus 2.6.28-rc3 tree. I was doing kernel makes (10 passes for
both kernels), and found that things worked just fine. All values below
are in seconds:

2.6.28-rc3:

Part Min Avg Max Dev
-------- ------- ------- ------- -------
untar 17.996 22.565 23.522 1.690
mk-cfg 3.279 3.454 3.529 0.070
mk-kern 140.837 141.557 142.549 0.626
mk-clean 10.460 11.604 12.710 0.758
-------- ------- ------- ------- -------
Combd 172.941 179.180 181.600 2.470
======== ======= ======= ======= =======
%sys 7.67% 7.78% 8.03% 0.114


Jens' origin/for-2.6.29:

Part Min Avg Max Dev
-------- ------- ------- ------- -------
untar 18.138 22.576 24.279 1.693
mk-cfg 3.270 3.483 3.751 0.118
mk-kern 141.290 142.115 142.666 0.439
mk-clean 8.263 9.609 10.211 0.624
-------- ------- ------- ------- -------
Combd 173.736 177.783 179.654 1.786
======== ======= ======= ======= =======
%sys 7.77% 7.85% 8.01% 0.074


Not sure why the 'make clean' portion of the runs went noticeably better
with the newer code, but in any event, I don't see much difference
elsewhere, and for sure the blktrace portion of things worked correctly.
[blktrace + blkparse + blkrawverify + btt all worked just fine out of
the box.]

Regards,
Alan
