[PATCH 07/18] ring-buffer: disable all cpu buffers when one finds a problem

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Fri Sep 04 2009 - 20:03:53 EST


From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>

Currently the way RB_WARN_ON works, is to disable either the current
CPU buffer or all CPU buffers, depending on whether a ring_buffer or
ring_buffer_per_cpu struct was passed into the macro.

Most users of the RB_WARN_ON pass in the CPU buffer, so only the one
CPU buffer gets disabled but the rest are still active. This may
confuse users even though a warning is sent to the console.

This patch changes the macro to disable the entire buffer even if
the CPU buffer is passed in.
