From 0cb91a2293648507886563ccb91979cfc94d6a4b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andi Kleen Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2006 10:52:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] i386: Account spinlocks to the caller during profiling for !FP kernels This ports the algorithm from x86-64 (with improvements) to i386. Previously this only worked for frame pointer enabled kernels. But spinlocks have a very simple stack frame that can be manually analyzed. Do this.
