ftrace already handles recursion protection by itself (depending on the per-ftrace-ops FTRACE_OPS_FL_RECURSION_SAFE flag). It's however not really well-defined what to do when recursion would happen. Therefore __notrace__ annotation, that just completely avoid such situation by making tracing impossible, looks like saner general solution to me. -- Jiri Kosina SUSE Labs _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
