[PATCH 2/2] tracing/blktrace: Fix to allow setting same value
From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Thu Aug 16 2018 - 05:51:43 EST
Current trace-enable attribute in sysfs returns an error
if user writes the same setting value as current one,
e.g.
# cat /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
0
# echo 0 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
But this is not a preferred behavior, it should ignore
if new setting is same as current one. This fixes the
problem as below.
# cat /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
0
# echo 0 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
