Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cool! But I'm going to change this API. The skip thing eventually appears to be unnecessary as we are going to put it on the very first event callback. So skip is going to be always be 1. We'll need that because the inlining of some tracing callback seems hard to predict (or we can but that would too tricky) and we also want to avoid a dependency to frame pointers to find the instruction pointer of an event true origin. Could you please wait a bit, just the time for me to change this before? The sparc implementation will need to be in tip also, so that it is in the same tree of the API change.
