Hi, guys:
  I want to use this tool. But I met one problem. So if you know this tool or tried it before, give me some suggestion for my problem.
  As you know, I should check the option: kernel hacking--Instrument kernel with calls to mcount() if I want to use this tool to get call graph. I read this option's help. It said I can't use this option if I use stock gcc. I need to download a simple patch from this website. So I downloaded that patch and rebuild my gcc. But the kernel still crash at boot time. If I don't select this option, everything is ok. But I can't get call graph.
   the following is my install steps:
  1. I use linux kernel 2.4.4 and patch it using profile-0.9.3-2.4.4 kernel patch.
  2. I patch my gcc using gcc-patch and rebuild it.
  3. make xconfig
  4. rebuild the kernel
  5. reboot
 I don't know how to solve this problem. so if you know, e-mail me.
 thank you evey much
gang
