Re: [PATCH v3 03/11] tracing/syscalls: add compat syscall metadata

From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
Date: 2016-10-12 08:50:56
Also in: linux-api, lkml
Subsystem: documentation, function hooks (ftrace), linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest, tracing · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Steven Rostedt, Masami Hiramatsu, Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

Now that compat syscalls are properly distinguished from native calls,
we can add metadata for compat syscalls as well.
All the macros used to generate the metadata are the same as for
standard syscalls, but with a compat_ prefix to distinguish them easily.

It's annoying that we have to duplicate all that just to do a + 1.

How about this as a precursor?

cheers
