[PATCH 2/3] tracing/ftrace: make nop tracer using tracer flags

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Sun Nov 16 2008 - 21:19:19 EST


Impact: give an example on how to use specific tracer flags

This patch propose to use the nop tracer to provide an
example for using the tracer's custom flags implementation.
