Hi, plamer:
This series is ready for its acceptance, you can pick it up.
> This series optimizes function trace. The first 3 independent
> patches has been picked in the V7 version of this series, the
> subsequent version continues the following 4 patches:
>
> select FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY [1] (patch 1)
> ==========================================================
>
> In RISC-V, -fpatchable-function-entry option is used to support
> dynamic ftrace in this commit afc76b8b8011 ("riscv: Using
> PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY instead of MCOUNT"). So recordmcount
> don't have to be called to create the __mcount_loc section before
> the vmlinux linking.
>
> Here selects FTRACE_MCOUNT_USE_PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTRY to tell
> Makefile not to run recordmcount.
>
> Make function graph use ftrace directly [2] (patch 2)
> ========================================================
>
> In RISC-V architecture, when we enable the ftrace_graph tracer on some
> functions, the function tracings on other functions will suffer extra
> graph tracing work. In essence, graph_ops isn't limited by its func_hash
> due to the global ftrace_graph_[regs]_call label. That should be
> corrected.
>
> What inspires me is the commit 0c0593b45c9b ("x86/ftrace: Make function
> graph use ftrace directly") that uses graph_ops::func function to
> install return_hooker and makes the function called against its
> func_hash.
>
> Add WITH_DIRECT_CALLS support [3] (patch 3, 4)
> ==============================================
>
> This series adds DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS support for RISC-V.
> SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT and SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT_MULTI are also included
> here as the samples for testing DIRECT_CALLS related interface.
>
> First, select the DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS to provide
> register_ftrace_direct[_multi] interfaces allowing user to register
> the customed trampoline (direct_caller) as the mcount for one or
> more target functions. And modify_ftrace_direct[_multi] are also
> provided for modify direct_caller.
>
> At the same time, the samples in ./samples/ftrace/ can be built
> as kerenl module for testing these interfaces with SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT
> and SAMPLE_FTRACE_DIRECT_MULTI selected.
>
> Second, to make the direct_caller and the other ftrace hooks
> (eg. function/fgraph tracer, k[ret]probes) co-exist, a temporary
> register
> are nominated to store the address of direct_caller in
> ftrace_regs_caller.
> After the setting of the address direct_caller by direct_ops->func and
> the RESTORE_REGS in ftrace_regs_caller, direct_caller will be jumped to
> by the `jr` inst.

>
> - patch 3: to pass the trace_selftest, add the implement of
