From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Subject: [PATCH 07/11] perf tools: Fix tracing_path_mount proper path Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2018 19:54:57 -0300 Message-ID: <20181017225501.32150-8-acme@kernel.org> References: <20181017225501.32150-1-acme@kernel.org> Return-path: In-Reply-To: <20181017225501.32150-1-acme@kernel.org> Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org To: Ingo Molnar Cc: Clark Williams , linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, linux-perf-users@vger.kernel.org, Jiri Olsa , Alexander Shishkin , Michael Petlan , Namhyung Kim , Peter Zijlstra , Steven Rostedt , Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo List-Id: linux-perf-users.vger.kernel.org From: Jiri Olsa If there's no tracefs (RHEL7) support the tracing_path_mount returns debugfs path which results in following fail: # perf probe sys_write kprobe_events file does not exist - please rebuild kernel with CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS. Error: Failed to add events. In tracing_path_debugfs_mount function we need to return the 'tracing' path instead of just the mount to make it work: # perf probe sys_write Added new event: probe:sys_write (on sys_write) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:sys_write -aR sleep 1 Adding the 'return tracing_path;' also to tracing_path_tracefs_mount function just for consistency with tracing_path_debugfs_mount. Upstream keeps working, because it has the tracefs support.
