PR 1144, 1379 * tapsets.cxx (emit_probe_prologue, _epilogue): New routines. Call from existing derived_probe spots. Implement soft errors in epilogue code. Implement reentrancy detection in prologue code. (dwarf_derived_probe::emit_deregistration): Add kprobes layer "nmissed" to skipped_count. * translate.cxx (varlock): Use nsleep(TRYLOCKDELAY) in lock contention loop. (emit_module_exit): Report number of soft errors and skipped probes. (emit_function, _probe): Add __restrict__ marker to context pointer. (translate_pass): Define new MAXTRYLOCK, TRYLOCKDELAY, MAXERRORS, MAXSKIPPED parameters. * tapset/logging.stp (error): Don't stp_error, just set context state. * stap.1.in, stapfuncs.5.in: Document soft errors. * elaborate.h: Corresponding changes. 2006-01-03 Frank Ch. Eigler <fche@redhat.com> * io.c (_stp_softerror): New function. 2006-01-03 Frank Ch. Eigler <fche@redhat.com> * systemtap.base/timers.exp: Extend the test run duration. Accept skipped probe warnings at shutdown.
