Actually I have a minor comment there too. You should really only need
to touch a byte on each page of the buffer, not all bytes like memset
would. This will make a read_file take longer than it absolutely needs
to, although it's likely negligable. Feel free to ignore this as you
see fit, perhaps after giving it a try to see if the difference is
even perceivable.

So, it appears that the only change that we agree on for now is the change
to m5.c. Should I submit that change as its own patch and withdraw this
one?
Thanks,
Joel

Hmm, maybe we should be building these regularly too... What do you
think, Ali? Would it be possible to return reserved1_func and use a
different code?
It was reserved for me while I was doing the bottleneck analysis work and
didn't want anyone to grab that ID. Once I pushed all of the bottleneck
analysis changes, I changed reserved into the actual cp_annotate
operations. So, everything worked as intended.
reserved1_func shouldn't be used anywhere and shouldn't be added back to
the file.

I don't understand how that made it reserved. Wouldn't anyone else be able
to do the same thing you did but with some conflicting use? The comment next
to those says "Reserved for user", but it's not if it ends up being assigned
an official use. Why would we want to have reserved2_func but not
reserved1_func?
