Subject: [PATCH tip 1/1] tracing: handle unregistering the current tracer
Date: Sat, 7 Feb 2009 18:52:59 -0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090207205259.GB11892@ghostprotocols.net> (raw)

Impact: simplification

Instead of requiring that plugins have the sequence:

  my_tracer_stop(my_trace_array);
  unregister_tracer(my_tracer);

it should be possible just do a:

  unregister_tracer(my_tracer);
