create a 'softirq_to_name' array, which is indexed by softirq #, so
that we can easily convert between the softirq index # and its name, in
order to get more meaningful output messages.

Hi,
May be you could abuse open_softirq() to append dynamically these entries:
char *softirq_to_name[NR_SOFTIRQS];
#define open_softirq(nr, func) \
softirq_to_name[nr] = __stringify(nr); \
__open_softirq(nr, func);
So that it's a bit more scalable.
Frederic.

Softirqs are pretty much set. If anything, they may even disappear (if the
threaded interrupts take off). So hardcoding it should not be an issue.

Small nit :
this should be a const char *.
Besides that it looks good, and very useful to a tracer. We just have to
make sure this table can eventually be saved into a trace.

hi,
I've update both patches to incorporate changes that were suggested -
I've shortened the softirq string name and made it 'const'. Below is a
re-spun patch 1/2.
thanks,
