Otherwise, between the two, the hwlat tracer could be turned off while a CPU is coming on line, and then you just started a per cpu thread, while the hwlat tracer is not enabled. > + if (!hwlat_busy) > + return 0; > + > + if (!cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, tr->tracing_cpumask)) > + return 0; > + > + return start_cpu_kthread(cpu); > +} > + > +/* > + * hwlat_cpu_die - CPU hotplug offline callback function > + */ > +static int hwlat_cpu_die(unsigned int cpu) > +{ Same here. -- Steve > + if (!hwlat_busy) > + return 0; > + > + stop_cpu_kthread(cpu); > + > + return 0; > +} > + > /* > * start_per_cpu_kthreads - Kick off the hardware latency sampling/detector kthreads > * > @@ -903,6 +932,11 @@ __init static int init_hwlat_tracer(void) > if (ret) > return ret; > > + ret = cpuhp_setup_state(CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN, "trace/hwlat:online", > + hwlat_cpu_init, hwlat_cpu_die); > + if (ret < 0) > + pr_warn(BANNER "Error to init cpu hotplug support\n"); > + > init_tracefs(); > > return 0;
