Subject: [PATCH 0/2 v2] tracing: Fix ftrace_boot_snapshot command line
Date: Tue, 04 Apr 2023 22:21:13 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230405022113.860447811@goodmis.org> (raw)
While debugging some boot up code, I found that the snapshots were
constantly triggering at boot up, even though there was no boot
snapshot specified. Looking into it, I found there were too bugs.
1) It would trigger a snapshot on any instance if one was created
from the kernel command line.
2) The error handling would only affect the top level instance.
So the fact that a snapshot was done on a instance that didn't
allocate a buffer triggered a warning written into the top level
buffer, and worse yet, disabled the top level buffer.
Changes since v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-kernel/20230404230011.757302390@goodmis.org/
- My tests failed due to tr->allocated_snapshot only being a field
when CONFIG_TRACE_MAX_TRACE is defined. And it doesn't make sense
doing any of that logic if it is not, as snapshots depend on that config.
This addresses both of the above bugs.
