Subject: [for-next][PATCH 04/20] tracing/kprobes: Skip setup_boot_kprobe_events() when no cmdline event
Date: Sun, 08 Feb 2026 21:20:30 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260209022052.701967355@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260209022026.627895421@kernel.org
From: Yaxiong Tian <tianyaxiong@kylinos.cn>
When the 'kprobe_event=' kernel command-line parameter is not provided,
there is no need to execute setup_boot_kprobe_events().
This change optimizes the initialization function init_kprobe_trace()
by skipping unnecessary work and effectively prevents potential blocking
that could arise from contention on the event_mutex lock in subsequent
operations.
