[for-linus][PATCH 1/8] tracing: Fix cpu buffers unavailable due to record_disabled missed
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Mon Aug 21 2023 - 22:38:34 EST
From: Zheng Yejian <zhengyejian1@xxxxxxxxxx>
Trace ring buffer can no longer record anything after executing
following commands at the shell prompt:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# cat tracing_cpumask
fff
# echo 0 > tracing_cpumask
# echo 1 > snapshot
# echo fff > tracing_cpumask
# echo 1 > tracing_on
# echo "hello world" > trace_marker
-bash: echo: write error: Bad file descriptor
The root cause is that:
1. After `echo 0 > tracing_cpumask`, 'record_disabled' of cpu buffers
in 'tr->array_buffer.buffer' became 1 (see tracing_set_cpumask());
2. After `echo 1 > snapshot`, 'tr->array_buffer.buffer' is swapped
with 'tr->max_buffer.buffer', then the 'record_disabled' became 0
(see update_max_tr());
3. After `echo fff > tracing_cpumask`, the 'record_disabled' become -1;
Then array_buffer and max_buffer are both unavailable due to value of
'record_disabled' is not 0.
To fix it, enable or disable both array_buffer and max_buffer at the same
time in tracing_set_cpumask().
