Subject: [PATCH] i386: Account spinlocks to the caller during profiling for !FP kernels
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.19-rc1~1077^2~192
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0cb91a2293648507886563ccb91979cfc94d6a4b;p=linux-2.6

[PATCH] i386: Account spinlocks to the caller during profiling for !FP kernels

This ports the algorithm from x86-64 (with improvements) to i386.
Previously this only worked for frame pointer enabled kernels.
But spinlocks have a very simple stack frame that can be manually
analyzed. Do this.
