[RFC PATCH 1/2] ftrace: Introduce cmdline argument ftrace_disabled

From: Tiezhu Yang
Date: Sat Jun 19 2021 - 02:29:36 EST


If set CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=y, we can use the following command to
disable ftrace after boot up:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled

ftrace_disabled is much stronger than ftrace_enabled, introduce a new
cmdline argument ftrace_disabled for user to control whether to disable
ftrace when boot up.
