The order of applying the changes should be: 1. [PATCH v2] trace-cmd: Check if file version is supported https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-devel/20210419093156.200099-1-tz.stoyanov@xxxxxxxxx/ 2. [PATCH 0/6] Bump trace file version https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-devel/20210422071718.483383-1-tz.stoyanov@xxxxxxxxx/ 3. [POC PATCH 00/10] Add trace file compression https://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-devel/20210422073902.484953-1-tz.stoyanov@xxxxxxxxx/ I wrote these dependencies in the cover-letters. BTW, I do not see (2) in patchwork, only in the mailing list. I'll send v2 of "Bump trace file version" including (1) in the patchset. > > -- Steve > > > > > > lib/trace-cmd/Makefile | 11 + > > .../include/private/trace-cmd-private.h | 42 ++- > > lib/trace-cmd/include/trace-cmd-local.h | 7 + > > lib/trace-cmd/trace-compress-zlib.c | 172 ++++++++++ > > lib/trace-cmd/trace-compress.c | 289 +++++++++++++++++ > > lib/trace-cmd/trace-input.c | 304 +++++++++++++----- > > lib/trace-cmd/trace-output.c | 268 ++++++++++++--- > > lib/trace-cmd/trace-util.c | 12 + > > tracecmd/trace-cmd.c | 11 +- > > tracecmd/trace-dump.c | 164 ++++++++-- > > tracecmd/trace-record.c | 18 +- > > tracecmd/trace-restore.c | 4 +- > > tracecmd/trace-usage.c | 1 + > > 13 files changed, 1152 insertions(+), 151 deletions(-) > > create mode 100644 lib/trace-cmd/trace-compress-zlib.c > > create mode 100644 lib/trace-cmd/trace-compress.c > > > -- Tzvetomir (Ceco) Stoyanov VMware Open Source Technology Center
