But after updated the libtracefs yesterday, I found my app doesn't work as before, then checked the changelog, and switch to use tracefs_tracing_dir_is_mounted. in your latest libtracefs: const char *tracefs_tracing_dir(void) { ... tracing_dir = trace_find_tracing_dir(false);//shold be changed to true? ... } __hidden char *trace_find_tracing_dir(bool debugfs) { return find_tracing_dir(debugfs, false); } static char *find_tracing_dir(bool debugfs, bool mount) { ... if (!mount || mount_debugfs() < 0) return NULL; ... } Kind regards, Bean
