The "struct stack_trace" infrastructure is based on CONFIG_STACKTRACE , so at least you would want to ifdef your changes on that config options .. I modified you patch to include the ifdefs, ftp://source.mvista.com/pub/dwalker/misc/debug-preempt-5-levels-of-stack-frames.patch The other problem I noticed is that the save_stack_trace(trace); seems kind of heavy weight to be calling from inside add_preempt_count. If your only going to a depth of 5 you could potentially use there macros, #ifdef CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER # ifndef CONFIG_ARM # define CALLER_ADDR0 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(0)) # define CALLER_ADDR1 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(1)) # define CALLER_ADDR2 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(2)) # define CALLER_ADDR3 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(3)) # define CALLER_ADDR4 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(4)) # define CALLER_ADDR5 ((unsigned long)__builtin_return_address(5)) # else Daniel - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rt-users" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
