This builds up on the CALL_OPS work which extends the ftrace patchsite
on arm64 with an ops pointer usable by the ftrace trampoline.
This ops pointer is valid at all time. Indeed, it is either pointing to
ftrace_list_ops or to the single ops which should be called from that
patchsite.
There are a few cases to distinguish:
- If a direct call ops is the only one tracing a function:
- If the direct called trampoline is within the reach of a BL
instruction
-> the ftrace patchsite jumps to the trampoline
- Else
-> the ftrace patchsite jumps to the ftrace_caller trampoline which
reads the ops pointer in the patchsite and jumps to the direct
call address stored in the ops
- Else
-> the ftrace patchsite jumps to the ftrace_caller trampoline and its
ops literal points to ftrace_list_ops so it iterates over all
registered ftrace ops, including the direct call ops and calls its
call_direct_funcs handler which stores the direct called
trampoline's address in the ftrace_regs and the ftrace_caller
trampoline will return to that address instead of returning to the
traced function

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
