[ 25/60] tracing: Fix reset of time stamps during trace_clock changes

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Aug 13 2013 - 02:53:52 EST


3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexander Z Lam <azl@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 9457158bbc0ee04ecef76862d73eecd8076e9c7b upstream.

Fixed two issues with changing the timestamp clock with trace_clock:

- The global buffer was reset on instance clock changes. Change this to pass
the correct per-instance buffer
- ftrace_now() is used to set buf->time_start in tracing_reset_online_cpus().
This was incorrect because ftrace_now() used the global buffer's clock to
return the current time. Change this to use buffer_ftrace_now() which
returns the current time for the correct per-instance buffer.

Also removed tracing_reset_current() because it is not used anywhere
