Subject: [PATCH 4.9 12/20] tracing: Ensure trace buffer is at least 4096 bytes large
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2022 12:34:13 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220314112730.862533003@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220314112730.388955049@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Sven Schnelle <svens@linux.ibm.com>
[ Upstream commit 7acf3a127bb7c65ff39099afd78960e77b2ca5de ]
Booting the kernel with 'trace_buf_size=1' give a warning at
boot during the ftrace selftests:
[ 0.892809] Running postponed tracer tests:
[ 0.892893] Testing tracer function:
[ 0.901899] Callback from call_rcu_tasks_trace() invoked.
[ 0.983829] Callback from call_rcu_tasks_rude() invoked.
[ 1.072003] .. bad ring buffer .. corrupted trace buffer ..
[ 1.091944] Callback from call_rcu_tasks() invoked.
[ 1.097695] PASSED
[ 1.097701] Testing dynamic ftrace: .. filter failed count=0 ..FAILED!
[ 1.353474] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 1.353478] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at kernel/trace/trace.c:1951 run_tracer_selftest+0x13c/0x1b0
Therefore enforce a minimum of 4096 bytes to make the selftest pass.
