It seems we need echo -1 to set_ftrace_pid to disable in. Or we'll get
these error message when running ftrace_stress:

...
ftrace_stress_test/ftrace_stress/ftrace_set_ftrace_pid.sh: line 39: echo: write error: Invalid argument

kernel version?

This is the result from latest kernel:

# echo > set_ftrace_pid
# echo -1 > set_ftrace_pid
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

2.6.32-114.0.1.el6.x86_64 , RHEL6.1.

Looks like latest kernel changed the behaviour. But the
Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt hasn't been updated:

     yum-updatesd-3111  [003]  1637.254683: lock_hrtimer_base <-hrtimer_try_to_cancel
     yum-updatesd-3111  [003]  1637.254685: fget_light <-do_sys_poll
     yum-updatesd-3111  [003]  1637.254686: pipe_poll <-do_sys_poll
# echo -1 > set_ftrace_pid
# cat trace |head
 # tracer: function
 #
 #           TASK-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
 

Thanks.

The change came from commit 756d17ee7ee4fbc8238bdf97100af63e6ac441ef

So we have to check the kernel version, or try both "echo > ..." and
"echo -1 > ...".

I believe the second method is better.
