Hi, stevenAfter applying this, I get a failure on the kprobe self tests at boot up:
Testing ftrace filter: OK
trace_kprobe: Testing kprobe tracing:
trace_kprobe: Could not probe notrace function kprobe_trace_selftest_target
------------[ cut here ]------------
WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1 at kernel/trace/trace_kprobe.c:1973 kprobe_trace_self_tests_init+0x5c/0x497

And I added the below patch, and it shows that the section is not properly
sorted. Something went wrong with your sorting.
I plan on keeping this check, at least as a compile option, to make sure
that the output is sorted, otherwise things will silently fail if they are
not.
This patch produced:
[ 1.315419] ftrace: allocating 43510 entries in 170 pages
[ 1.320638] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 1.325227] [3] x86_pnpbios_disabled+0x0/0x1c at 8a51c707 is not sorted with __traceiter_initcall_level+0x0/0x60 at 87000660
I'm dropping the patches until this is "sorted out" :-)
