Re: [PATCH] Update old Mini-HOWTO for ftrace

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I attached patch file again because no-operation is changed
from "none"word to "nop" word.

for example,
-       "wakeup preemptirqsoff preemptoff irqsoff ftrace sched_switch none\n\n"
+       "wakeup preemptirqsoff preemptoff irqsoff function sched_switch nop\n\n"

./trace_nop.c:struct tracer nop_trace __read_mostly =
	.name	= "nop",
	.init		= nop_trace_init,
	.reset	= nop_trace_reset,
	.selftest	= trace_selftest_startup_nop,
	.flags	= &nop_flags,
	.set_flag	= nop_set_flag
