Not sure how to make the environment safe, as the main purpose of the function trace is to debug those hard to debug locations, like NMIs, RCU, dynamic ticks, etc. To ensure a "safe" environment, it would cripple the tracer. Hmm, what would you state as a safe environment? How can we detect if the environment is safe to trace or not? -- Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe trinity" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
