Hi all -
Over the past several years, the tracing infrastructure has improved to the point that it incurs very little runtime overhead. The attached patchset migrates the useful options from the -trace configs to all of the other configs and ultimately removes the trace flavor entirely. This saves space for the kernel RPMs as well as conserves build resources.
Hi,
on the other hand, I just wanted to point out, that DYN_FTRACE generates 22 bytes of nops on s390 (in comparison to 5 bytes on x86_64) in every function which actually can impact performance. But we don't care about s390 in openSUSE much, right? (We are to measure this on SLE yet.)
Is there an s390(x) port of openSUSE? I mean, the OBS build farm certainly does not include any z/Series hosts... Since the internal Factory builds are not public (AFAIK), someone else would have to re-compile the openSUSE sources. I'm not aware of anyone actually doing that. If that's the case, then the openSUSE community does not care about mainframe at all. Petr T
