[PATCH 2/4] tracing: stop stack trace on first empty entry
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Fri May 15 2009 - 00:09:20 EST
From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@xxxxxxxxxx>
The stack tracer stores eight entries in the ring buffer when an event
traces the stack. The output outputs all eight entries regardless of
how many entries were recorded.
This patch breaks out of the loop when a null entry is discovered.
[ Impact: only print the stack that is recorded ]
