| |
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
gcc 5 supports a new -mcount-record option to generate ftrace tables directly. This avoids the need to run record_mcount manually.
Use this option when available.
So far doesn't use -mcount-nop, which also exists now.
This is needed to make ftrace work with LTO because the normal record-mcount script doesn't run over the link time output.
It should also improve build times slightly in the general case.
