Subject: [for-next][PATCH 2/3] tracing: Reset last_boot_info if ring buffer is reset
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2026 09:14:35 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260212141450.462148762@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260212141433.849771751@kernel.org
From: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org>
Commit 32dc0042528d ("tracing: Reset last-boot buffers when reading
out all cpu buffers") resets the last_boot_info when user read out
all data via trace_pipe* files. But it is not reset when user
resets the buffer from other files. (e.g. write `trace` file)
Reset it when the corresponding ring buffer is reset too.
