Who need this? Hello, Kosaki-san Now lttng trace only sys_socket_call for sys_socket, sys_bind and others. But on some arch(for ex, ia64) which lacks of sys_socket_call, we can't get those syscall traced. This patch add separate socketcall tracers to sys_socket, sys_bind, etc. So people who using ia64 can trace each socket calls. Do you agree it? I'll add some explain to comment and send a v2 patch.
