Hello there,
I have several questions with regard to oprofile backtracing support
in the kernel and would appreciate responses from SUSE Developers.
1. Currently, CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO is not set on openSUSE and SLES9.
Will it be set in future SUSE products? This is required for oprofile
backtracing to work in user space.
2. Because CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is not set on openSUSE and SLES9,
samples in the kernel will not have backtraces. Is there any
possibility that future releases of openSUSE and SLES will have
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER set?
I am currently in the process of developing a front-end with a
rewritten oprofile kernel module as the backend. Proper support for
backtracing on SUSE products will help customers properly visualize
the callstacks.
Thanks
Kay Tiong
