From 37886f6a9f62d22530ffee8d3f9215c8345b6969 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2009 17:22:06 -0400 Subject: ring-buffer: add api to allow a tracer to change clock source This patch adds a new function called ring_buffer_set_clock that allows a tracer to assign its own clock source to the buffer.

This cuts down on saturation of branch predictions and increases performance of modern pipelined architectures.
