This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tracing: Disable snapshot buffer when stopping instance tracers to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: tracing-disable-snapshot-buffer-when-stopping-instance-tracers.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From b538bf7d0ec11ca49f536dfda742a5f6db90a798 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 5 Dec 2023 16:52:11 -0500 Subject: tracing: Disable snapshot buffer when stopping instance tracers From: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit b538bf7d0ec11ca49f536dfda742a5f6db90a798 upstream. It use to be that only the top level instance had a snapshot buffer (for latency tracers like wakeup and irqsoff). When stopping a tracer in an instance would not disable the snapshot buffer. This could have some unintended consequences if the irqsoff tracer is enabled. Consolidate the tracing_start/stop() with tracing_start/stop_tr() so that all instances behave the same. The tracing_start/stop() functions will just call their respective tracing_start/stop_tr() with the global_array passed in.
