| |
(sending v2 after properly refreshing my patches and re-reading through the posted version carefully)
Hello,
Here is a patchset that fixes the Ftrace-induced crash experienced on sparc64 discussed in the following thread: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/16/2
The third patch changes the Tracepoints to use the more compact alignment scheme proposed here, even though their alignment on 32-byte works fine. This third patch is therefore not a fix per se.
The patchset is based on 2.6.37. Hopefully there are not too many things to update for the current -git.
Comments, flames as well as acclamation are welcome. ;-)
Mathieu
