Parent article: On the value of static tracepoints

it would make more sense if someone maintained a patchset that provided the static trace points - ie: a dev kernel build. before a hacker makes the changes to their git repo public, they pop the patchset - or git does it for the developer magically. does git have the ability to transparently add/remove private patches like this?

It already exists, and it's called LTTng.

See :

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/compudj/linux-2...

Note that it contains both the instrumentation and the LTTng tracer.

The patchsets are available at :
