-This is an optional optimization for the normal case when tracing is turned off
-in the system. If you do not enable this Kconfig option, the common ftrace
-code will take care of doing the checking for you.
-
-To support this feature, you only need to check the function_trace_stop
-variable in the mcount function. If it is non-zero, there is no tracing to be
-done at all, so you can return.
-
-This additional pseudo code would simply be:
-void mcount(void)
-{
- /* save any bare state needed in order to do initial checking */
-
-+ if (function_trace_stop)
-+ return;
