Subject: [PATCH bpf v2] bpftool: Flush tracelog output
Date: Fri, 17 Dec 2021 15:11:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211217141140.GA26351@Mem> (raw)
The output of bpftool prog tracelog is currently buffered, which is
inconvenient when piping the output into other commands. A simple
tracelog | grep will typically not display anything. This patch fixes it
by flushing the tracelog output after each line from the trace_pipe file.
Fixes: 30da46b5dc3a ("tools: bpftool: add a command to dump the trace pipe")
