3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 613f04a0f51e6e68ac6fe571ab79da3c0a5eb4da upstream. The latency tracers require the buffers to be in overwrite mode, otherwise they get screwed up. Force the buffers to stay in overwrite mode when latency tracers are enabled. Added a flag_changed() method to the tracer structure to allow the tracers to see what flags are being changed, and also be able to prevent the change from happing. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> [bwh: Backported to 3.2: - Adjust context - Drop some changes that are not needed because trace_set_options() is not separate from tracing_trace_options_write()] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- --- a/kernel/trace/trace.c +++ b/kernel/trace/trace.c @@ -2636,11 +2636,25 @@ static int set_tracer_option(struct trac return -EINVAL;
