Ah, sorry I got what you said. I think this `trace` is not usable for the new interface. Most of the information is only used for the function-graph tracer. For example, trace->calltime and trace->overrun, trace->depth are used only for the function-graph tracer, but not for the other tracers. But yeah, this idea is considerable. It also allows us to just update entryfunc() and retfunc() to pass fgraph_regs and return address. Thank you! -- Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>
