----------arch/mips/kernel/module.c:apply_r_mips_26_rel()-------------------

v is kernel _mcount's address, location is the address of the instrution
that should be relocated;

To resolve this problem, we may need to do more work, either on gcc or on
the kernel. So I want to hear your test result and if you have solution,
please let me know.


yes, current version of mips-specific dynamic ftrace not support modules yet.

there is similar solution implemented in PowerPC(something named trampoline),
although I did not look into it, but I'm sure we can implement the
mips-specific one
via imitating it.
Good hit. I may have a look on Powerpc implementation.


and currently, I'm planning to fix it in the -v3 of mips-specific
ftrace support.
OK. I'm looking forward to your -v3 patches.

Thanks.

best wishes,
