The DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS configuration makes it possible for a ftrace operation to specify if registers need to saved/restored by the ftrace handler. This is needed by kgraft and possibly other ftrace-based tools, and the ARM architecture is currently lacking this feature. It would also be the first step to support the "Kprobes-on-ftrace" optimization on ARM. This patch introduces a new ftrace handler that stores the registers on the stack before calling the next stage. The registers are restored from the stack before going back to the instrumented function. A side-effect of this patch is to activate the support for ftrace_modify_call() as it defines ARCH_SUPPORTS_FTRACE_OPS for the ARM architecture.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
