How far in the "beginning"? Before memory is set up? I wouldn't do that. I have in the past (set up before memory was finished being initialized), but things have changed since then. One thing that we could do for those that want really early tracing, is to add a config option to add a static temporary ring buffer, that gets copied into the default ring buffer after memory is set up. That may be the easiest way. Once memory is set up, the ring buffer can be allocated and events can be traced, but the ring buffer needs to be set up first. All it would take is some calls in init/main.c start_kernel() to the initialization. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
