[patch 9/9] LTTng instrumentation - swap

[Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@polymtl.ca>]

[-- Attachment #1: lttng-instrumentation-swap.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 5091 bytes --]

Instrumentation of waits caused by swap activity. Also instrumentation
swapon/swapoff events to keep track of active swap partitions.

Those tracepoints are used by LTTng.

About the performance impact of tracepoints (which is comparable to markers),
even without immediate values optimizations, tests done by Hideo Aoki on ia64
show no regression. His test case was using hackbench on a kernel where
scheduler instrumentation (about 5 events in code scheduler code) was added.
See the "Tracepoints" patch header for performance result detail.
