From: Brian Foster <bfoster@xxxxxxxxxx> The pipe cpumask used to serialize opens between the main and percpu trace pipes is not zeroed or initialized. This can result in spurious -EBUSY returns if underlying memory is not fully zeroed. This has been observed by immediate failure to read the main trace_pipe file on an otherwise newly booted and idle system: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe cat: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe: Device or resource busy Zero the allocation of pipe_cpumask to avoid the problem.
