ftrace, ia64: IA64 dynamic ftrace support
IA64 dynamic ftrace support.
The original _mcount stub for each function is like:
alloc r40=ar.pfs,12,8,0
mov r43=r0;;
mov r42=b0
mov r41=r1
nop.i 0x0
br.call.sptk.many b0 = _mcount;;
The patch convert it to below for nop:
[MII] nop.m 0x0
mov r3=ip
nop.i 0x0
[MLX] nop.m 0x0
nop.x 0x0;;
This isn't completely nop, as there is one instuction 'mov r3=ip', but
it should be light and harmless for code follow it.
And below is for call
[MII] nop.m 0x0
mov r3=ip
nop.i 0x0
[MLX] nop.m 0x0
brl.many .;;
In this way, only one instruction is changed to convert code between nop
and call. This should meet dyn-ftrace's requirement.
But this requires CPU support brl instruction, so dyn-ftrace isn't
supported for old Itanium system. Assume there are quite few such old
system running.
