In the case of the hist expression tests. they create a variable: echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:x=1+2' >> trigger Then print its value in another histogram: echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:vals=$x' >> trigger At least in this case, the triggers are listed from oldest (top) to newest (bottom): cat trigger hist:keys=common_pid:vals=hitcount:x=3:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [active] hist:keys=common_pid:vals=hitcount,$x:sort=hitcount:size=2048 [active] So we need to remove the trigger with the var ref first. - Kalesh > > > If anything, shouldn't things be removed in order? > > Hmm, I think the trigger itself might better to be changed.
