The TP_printk() is what will be shown in the print format of the event "format" file, and is what trace-cmd and perf use to parse the data and know what to print. If you use "action_name[result]" that will be what the user space tools see, and will have no idea what to do with "action_name[result]". The hard coded output is a bit more explicit in how to interpret the raw data. Another way around this is to create a "plugin" that can be loaded and will override the TP_printk() parsing. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
