Subject: [for-next][PATCH 3/4] tracing/hist: Support POLLPRI event for poll on histogram
Date: Tue, 07 Jan 2025 22:36:50 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250108033703.860150681@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20250108033647.656576164@goodmis.org
From: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org>
Since POLLIN will not be flushed until the hist file is read, the user
needs to repeatedly read() and poll() on the hist file for monitoring the
event continuously. But the read() is somewhat redundant when the user is
only monitoring for event updates.
Add POLLPRI poll event on the hist file so the event returns when a
histogram is updated after open(), poll() or read(). Thus it is possible
to wait for the next event without having to issue a read().
