hmm, ok. good, avoid cpu_switch.
First of all, please, read style(9) man page.
In the second, evaluate the proposed plan (discussed with kib@):

1) Annotate libc, msun, rtld, libthr (you)
2) vdso (I'm)
3) Annotate signal trampolines (you, after vdso)

And i'm going to understand what I need to do to start GSoC for you.
Thanks!
