ftrace, ia64: IA64 dynamic ftrace support
IA64 dynamic ftrace support. The original _mcount stub for each function is like: alloc r40=ar.pfs,12,8,0 mov r43=r0;; mov r42=b0 mov r41=r1 nop.i 0x0 br.call.sptk.many b0 = _mcount;; The patch convert it to below for nop: [MII] nop.m 0x0 mov r3=ip nop.i 0x0 [MLX] nop.m 0x0 nop.x 0x0;; This isn't completely nop, as there is one instuction 'mov r3=ip', but it should be light and harmless for code follow it. And below is for call [MII] nop.m 0x0 mov r3=ip nop.i 0x0 [MLX] nop.m 0x0 brl.many .;; In this way, only one instruction is changed to convert code between nop and call. This should meet dyn-ftrace's requirement. But this requires CPU support brl instruction, so dyn-ftrace isn't supported for old Itanium system. Assume there are quite few such old system running.
