Happy birthday to make localmodconfig
! It is now 14 years old. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=03fa25da8335a942161a8070b3298cfd4edf9b6a
I’m debugging something that is causing a lockup, where I only get a single line out on the crash (no stackdump, nada!). Frustrated, I thought about slapping printk()’s all over the place, and then thought to myself. Hmm, it would be much nicer to just hook function tracing to printk….
Coming soon: ftrace_printk!
Libtraceevent 1.7.2 is released with minor updates.

@kernellogger I as so disappointed that it wasn’t done to the tune of “What have you done for me lately”….. “What Has RCU Done Lately… ooh ooh ooh yeah!” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9uizdKZAGE
@monsieuricon @torvalds I thought Walleij was the real “Linus”. And yes, we need to get him here! (maybe he is, but I can’t find him).
@takaswie I would love to switch (and may do so), but we are resurrecting “ureadahead” from the dead, and it’s currently knee deep in autoconf. It has international local support and all that jazz, where I have no idea how to port that to meson and not cause regressions (it’s really more like a zombie than totally dead).
