Bug#563847: Please enable the f-trace tracers



Source: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-3
Severity: wishlist

Currently Ftrace is enabled in the kernel, CONFIG_FTRACE=y and
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=y. However, some the most useful tracers, such
as CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER and CONFIG_STACK_TRACER, are disabled. For
example:

	CONFIG_FTRACE=y
	# CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER is not set
	# CONFIG_IRQSOFF_TRACER is not set
	# CONFIG_SYSPROF_TRACER is not set
	# CONFIG_SCHED_TRACER is not set
	# CONFIG_FTRACE_SYSCALLS is not set
	...
	# CONFIG_POWER_TRACER is not set
	# CONFIG_STACK_TRACER is not set

Since Dynamic Ftrace is already enabled, I can't think of down side to
enabling the actual tracers. Please consider this a wishlist request
to enabled them.

Thanks,

Troy
