While sched* events being traced and sched* events continuously happen,
"[xx] event tracing - enable/disable with subsystem level files" would

Select the first 100 lines of output would be enough to judge whether
there are more than 3 types of sched events.

It's not that it never stops but on some slower systems it does seem to
take forever.

Shuah,

Can you take this through your tree?

Thanks,

Thanks for your ack but I found that I missed the 2nd and 3rd 'trace' after 'head -n 100' in code. Should I resend a new patch to fix this and meanwhile modify commit messages according to Steve's words?
