Hi

So i don't have to repost my patch here. Please use the original
commit log message[1/3] as is.
But please keep in mind that there is still an issue that I mentioned
in the cover letter; 'Size' field is inaccurate.
 <reported size> = <its own dynamic local variables>
                        + <child's local variables>
and
 <real size> = <reported size> + <its local variables>
                               - <child's local variables>
where "dynamic" means, for example, a variable allocated like the below:
  int foo(int num) {
    int array[num];
    ...
  }
(See more details in my ascii art.)

Such usage is seldom seen in the kernel, and <reported size> is
likely equal to <child's local variables>. In other words, we will
see one-line *displacement* in most cases.

(We'd better mention it explicitly in the commmit?)

Thanks,
-Takahiro AKASHI

Thanks! Can you repost patch 1 with the changes I recommended, so that
I can get an Acked-by from the arm64 maintainers and pull all the
changes in together. This is fine for a 4.3 release, right? That is, it
doesn't need to go into 4.2-rcs.


It's not hard to repost a patch, but I feel like we have to wait for Akashi's 
response.
Also, it might be needed to consider Mark's comment on arch part.

If they are okay, I will proceed.

The [RFC 1/3] patch used in my environment is shaped as follows.
I leave the hunk for *only* clear synchronization. This is why I choose this 
format
instead of reposting a patch. I hope it would help to track down this thread.

I think this is my best at this point.

The arm64 bits look fine to me:

Steve: feel free to take this along with the other ftrace changes. I don't
anticipate any conflicts, but if anything crops up in -next we can sort
it out then.

Thanks!

Will
