Subject: i386 FRAME_POINTER needs DEBUG_MUTEXES
Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2006 17:44:32 +0000 (GMT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.61.0601101718570.2942@goblin.wat.veritas.com> (raw)

I find the 2.6.15-git6 i386 CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y doesn't work unless
CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y, because of the __mutex_fastpath jumps to fail_fn
(giving two pushes of %ebp to one pop).  Whereas x86_64 __mutex_fastpaths
use calls and work with FRAME_POINTER=y.  Whether i386 deserves asm mods
rather than Kconfigery to force one from other, I've no strong instinct.

Hugh
