I really like 'blocking/preempted' indication and of course I miss pointers decoding. Did anyone really think about decoding pointers and how we can implement it (like dumping them upon entering a syscall and then using inside the perf trace?)? -- 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/
