The function pointers ftrace_graph_entry and ftrace_graph_return are no longer called via the function_graph tracer. Instead, an array structure is now used that will allow for multiple users of the function_graph infrastructure. The variables are still used by the architecture code for non dynamic ftrace configs, where a test is made against them to see if they point to the default stub function or not. This is how the static function tracing knows to call into the function graph tracer infrastructure or not. Two new stub functions are made. entry_run() and return_run(). The ftrace_graph_entry and ftrace_graph_return are set to them respectively when the function graph tracer is enabled, and this will trigger the architecture specific function graph code to be executed. This also requires checking the global_ops hash for all calls into the function_graph tracer.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
