From: Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) Date: Thu, 14 Mar 2013 17:13:45 +0000 (-0400) Subject: tracing: Add "uptime" trace clock that uses jiffies X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8aacf017b065a805d27467843490c976835eb4a5;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git tracing: Add "uptime" trace clock that uses jiffies Add a simple trace clock called "uptime" for those that are interested in the uptime of the trace. It uses jiffies as that's the safest method, as other uptime clocks grab seq locks, which could cause a deadlock if taken from an event or function tracer.
