Ingo,

This patch series extends ftrace function tracing utility to be
more dynamic for its users. It allows for data passing to the callback
functions, as well as reading regs as if a breakpoint were to trigger
at function entry.

The main goal of this patch series was to allow kprobes to use ftrace
as an optimized probe point when a probe is placed on an ftrace nop.
With lots of help from Masami Hiramatsu, and going through lots of
iterations, we finally came up with a good solution.

I've tested it vigorously (although, like always, there may be some
subtle bug), but I feel it is ready for inclussion for the 3.6 merge
window.

Masami Hiramatsu (5):
      ftrace: add ftrace_set_filter_ip() for address based filter
      kprobes: cleanup to separate probe-able check
      kprobes: Move locks into appropriate functions
      kprobes: introduce ftrace based optimization
      kprobes/x86: ftrace based optimization for x86

Steven Rostedt (13):
      ftrace: Pass ftrace_ops as third parameter to function trace callback
      ftrace: Consolidate arch dependent functions with 'list' function
      ftrace: Return pt_regs to function trace callback
      ftrace/x86_32: Push ftrace_ops in as 3rd parameter to function tracer
      ftrace/x86: Add separate function to save regs
      ftrace/x86: Add save_regs for i386 function calls
      ftrace/x86: Remove function_trace_stop check from graph caller
      ftrace: Add default recursion protection for function tracing
      ftrace: Only compile ftrace selftest if selftests are enabled
      ftrace: Add selftest to test function trace recursion protection
      ftrace: Add selftest to test function save-regs support
      kprobes: Inverse taking of module_mutex with kprobe_mutex
      ftrace: Make ftrace_location() a nop on !DYNAMIC_FTRACE

Uros Bizjak (1):
      ftrace/x86_32: Simplify parameter setup for ftrace_regs_caller
