This just adds overhead and wastes a branch prediction. This is why the TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION() was created. It places the check inside the jump label so that the branch does not happen unless tracing is enabled. That is, instead of doing: if (em) trace_btrfs_get_extent(root, em); Which is basically this: if (em) if (static_key(trace_btrfs_get_extent)) { Using a TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION() we can just do: trace_btrfs_get_extent(root, em); And the condition trace event will do: if (static_key(trace_btrfs_get_extent)) { if (em) { ... The static key is a non conditional jump (or nop) that is faster than having to check if em is NULL or not.
