If that means we don't carry utrace.patch at all anymore once
it's
accepted, then maybe yes. [...] Are we going to drop the utrace
parts as soon as uprobes are in and basically give up on that
effort?
For a long time, our plan has been to get uprobes upstream, and at
some point thereafter drop utrace. They are not identical, so in fact
we'll suffer some functionality/performance regressions, until further
improvements to upstream-bound uprobes are made. Perhaps that might
justify keeping utrace around a little while after uprobes is merged.
But we anticipate no further upstream utrace effort.
