#1730468 — [PATCH] tracing: erase irqsoff trace with empty write

FromBo Yan <byan@nvidia.com>

Subject[PATCH] tracing: erase irqsoff trace with empty write
Message-ID<uoBtn-6V3-5@gated-at.bofh.it>
One convenient way to erase trace is "echo > trace". However, this
is currently broken if the current tracer is irqsoff tracer. This
is because irqsoff tracer use max_buffer as the default trace
buffer.

Set the max_buffer as the one to be cleared when it's the trace
buffer currently in use.

Hi Bo,

I have no problems with the logic of the patch. But just one nit. The
tr->trace_buffer has been called "trace_buf" elsewhere in the file. Can
you resend with using the variable name "trace_buf" instead of "tr_buf"
just to keep it consistent in the file. It's also been called 'buf' but
trace_buf would probably be more appropriate.

Thanks!

Yes, I actually applied it. It's pushed to my ftrace/urgent branch, and
I'm currently testing it. If/when it passes I'll be pushing it off to
Linus.

Thanks!
