Subject: Re: [PATCH 21/23 -v8] Add markers to various events

Hi Steven,

I would propose the following standard for IRQ handler markers:

trace_mark(kernel_irq_entry, "irq_id %u kernel_mode %u", irq,
  (regs)?(!user_mode(regs)):(1));
...
trace_mark(kernel_irq_exit, MARK_NOARGS);

So we can know the elaspsed time in irq handlers and whether they are
nested on user of kernel code.

The same for traps :

trace_mark(kernel_arch_trap_entry, "trap_id %d ip #p%ld", trapnr,
  instruction_pointer(regs));

Where we know the trap number and the instruction pointer that caused
the trap. Here again, we should put a :

trace_mark(kernel_arch_trap_exit, MARK_NOARGS);

At the end of the trap handlers.

It makes automatic analysis _much_ easier than trying to gather each and
every handler instrumentation which would have a different name...

Mathieu
