Prev: [PATCH 1/6] tracing: Update the comm field in the right variable in update_max_tr
Next: [PATCH 0/6] Potential rt patches for tip/rt/2.6.33
From: John Kacur on 14 Jun 2010 18:30 Certain debug configurations that have LOCKDEP turned on, run into the limit where the MAX_STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES are too small. Rather than simply turning off the locking correctness validator, let the user configure this value to something reasonable for their system. This patch was generated against 2.6.33.5-rt23 but is also intended to be picked-up for mainline.
