Subject: [PATCH] tracing: kprobe-event: Return directly when dyn_event_list is empty
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2026 09:36:41 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260123013641.23066-1-sunliming@linux.dev> (raw)
From: sunliming <sunliming@kylinos.cn>
In enable_boot_kprobe_events(), it returns directly when dyn_event_list is
empty, thereby reducing the function's execution time. This function may
otherwise wait for the event_mutex lock for tens of milliseconds on certain
machines, which is unnecessary when dyn_event_list is empty.
