Subject: [PATCH 2/2] tracing: add per-CPU memory usage statistics in tracefs
Date: Sat, 5 Sep 2026 19:27:32 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260905112732.3705405-3-gaoxiang17@xiaomi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260905112732.3705405-1-gaoxiang17@xiaomi.com>
Provide a per-CPU view of the tracing ring-buffer memory usage under
trace_stats/per_cpu/cpuN/memory_usage_kb, using the same format as the
aggregate file. Each file reports only the buffers belonging to that CPU
across the global trace array and all tracing instances.
