But I think it cannot enforce "--call-graph fp,defer" to > use frame pointers when SFrame is available.. Hmm. Yeah, let's just call it --defer. The "fp" part isn't really something perf has control over. It's an implementation detail. Perf should really just care about getting a stack trace and not how the kernel goes about it. The only difference is that it needs to know if it is deferred or not, as perf needs to do things differently when it is. -- Steve
