This patch is pretty much the inverse of the original patch that added it, so looks good to me (and it didn't seem to break anything). So, for both this patch and the "ftrace: Remove check for HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST" one: Acked-by: James Hogan <james.ho...@imgtec.com> Cheers James > -- Steve > >> >> Cc: James Hogan <james.ho...@imgtec.com> >> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rost...@goodmis.org> >> --- >> arch/metag/Kconfig | 1 - >> arch/metag/kernel/ftrace_stub.S | 14 -------------- >> 2 files changed, 15 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/arch/metag/Kconfig b/arch/metag/Kconfig >> index 499b7610eaaf..0b389a81c43a 100644 >> --- a/arch/metag/Kconfig >> +++ b/arch/metag/Kconfig >> @@ -13,7 +13,6 @@ config METAG >> select HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE >> select HAVE_FTRACE_MCOUNT_RECORD >> select HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACER >> - select HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST >> select HAVE_KERNEL_BZIP2 >> select HAVE_KERNEL_GZIP >> select HAVE_KERNEL_LZO >> diff --git a/arch/metag/kernel/ftrace_stub.S >> b/arch/metag/kernel/ftrace_stub.S >> index e70bff745bdd..3acc288217c0 100644 >> --- a/arch/metag/kernel/ftrace_stub.S >> +++ b/arch/metag/kernel/ftrace_stub.S >> @@ -16,13 +16,6 @@ _mcount_wrapper: >> .global _ftrace_caller >> .type _ftrace_caller,function >> _ftrace_caller: >> - MOVT D0Re0,#HI(_function_trace_stop) >> - ADD D0Re0,D0Re0,#LO(_function_trace_stop) >> - GETD D0Re0,[D0Re0] >> - CMP D0Re0,#0 >> - BEQ $Lcall_stub >> - MOV PC,D0.4 >> -$Lcall_stub: >> MSETL [A0StP], D0Ar6, D0Ar4, D0Ar2, D0.4 >> MOV D1Ar1, D0.4 >> MOV D0Ar2, D1RtP >> @@ -42,13 +35,6 @@ _ftrace_call: >> .global _mcount_wrapper >> .type _mcount_wrapper,function >> _mcount_wrapper: >> - MOVT D0Re0,#HI(_function_trace_stop) >> - ADD D0Re0,D0Re0,#LO(_function_trace_stop) >> - GETD D0Re0,[D0Re0] >> - CMP D0Re0,#0 >> - BEQ $Lcall_mcount >> - MOV PC,D0.4 >> -$Lcall_mcount: >> MSETL [A0StP], D0Ar6, D0Ar4, D0Ar2, D0.4 >> MOV D1Ar1, D0.4 >> MOV D0Ar2, D1RtP > -- 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/
