[PATCH 0/2] tracing/function_graph fixes for 2.6.31

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Tue Jul 28 2009 - 17:55:52 EST


Ingo, Thomas,

Those are two fixes for the function graph tracer for .31

The first one fixes a possible race condition between a function graph trace
reader and ring buffer writers, leading to a mixup inside an event entry, or
worst.

The second one fixes some issues in the output of the function graph tracer
while using splice on the trace_pipe file or ftrace_dump().

Both fixes should also be backported on .30 for the -stable branch.

Thanks,
Frederic.
