[RFC PATCH 04/17] tracing: Add a seq_buf_clear() helper and clear len and readpos in init

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0736c033a81547b1cdc5120fc8dd60e26a00fd28 upstream.

Add a helper function seq_buf_clear() that resets the len and readpos
fields of a seq_buf. Currently it is only used in the seq_buf_init()
but will be used later when updating the seq_file code.
