From 6bc5c366b1a45ca18fba6851f62db5743b3f6db5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pekka Paalanen Date: Sat, 3 Jan 2009 21:23:51 +0200 Subject: trace: mmiotrace to the tracer menu in Kconfig Impact: cosmetic change in Kconfig menu layout This patch was originally suggested by Peter Zijlstra, but seems it was forgotten. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE and CONFIG_MMIOTRACE_TEST were selectable directly under the Kernel hacking / debugging menu in the kernel configuration system. They were present only for x86 and x86_64. Other tracers that use the ftrace tracing framework are in their own sub-menu. This patch moves the mmiotrace configuration options there. Since the Kconfig file, where the tracer menu is, is not architecture specific, HAVE_MMIOTRACE_SUPPORT is introduced and provided only by x86/x86_64. CONFIG_MMIOTRACE now depends on it.

Unless you are good at reading hex values, the function tracer should select the KALLSYMS configuration. Also, the dynamic function tracer will fail its self test if KALLSYMS is not selected.
