From a98a3c3fde3ae7614f19758a043691b6f59dac53 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Mon, 12 May 2008 21:20:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ftrace: trace_entries to dynamically change trace buffer size This patch adds /debug/tracing/trace_entries that allows users to see as well as modify the number of trace entries the buffers hold. The number of entries only increments in ENTRIES_PER_PAGE which is calculated by the size of an entry with the number of entries that can fit in a page. The user does not need to use an exact size, but the entries will be rounded to one of the increments. Trying to set the entries to 0 will return with -EINVAL. To avoid race conditions, the modification of the buffer size can only be done when tracing is completely disabled (current_tracer == none). A info message will be printed if a user tries to modify the buffer size when not set to none.
