Since __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc is marked as notrace, function calls in __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc shouldn't be traced either. The function ftrace_graph_caller() gets called for each function that isn't marked 'notrace', like canonicalize_ip(). This is the call trace from a run:
[ 139.644550] ftrace_graph_caller+0x1c/0x24 [ 139.648352] canonicalize_ip+0x18/0x28 [ 139.652313] __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc+0x14/0x58 [ 139.656184] sched_clock+0x34/0x1e8 [ 139.659759] trace_clock_local+0x40/0x88 [ 139.663722] ftrace_push_return_trace+0x8c/0x1f0 [ 139.667767] prepare_ftrace_return+0xa8/0x100 [ 139.671709] ftrace_graph_caller+0x1c/0x24 Rework so that the functions check_kcov_mode and canonicalize_ip that is callef from __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc also is marked as notrace.
