Subject: [PATCH 2/3] tracing/function-graph-tracer: turn tracing_selftest_running into an int
Date: Sat, 06 Dec 2008 03:41:33 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4939E65D.9060800@gmail.com> (raw)
Impact: cleanups
Apply some suggestions of Steven Rostedt:
_turn tracing_selftest_running into a simple int (no need of an atomic_t)
_set it __read_mostly
_fix a comment style
