From 042957801626465492b9428860de39a3cb2a8219 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Fri, 12 Nov 2010 22:32:11 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] tracing/events: Show real number in array fields Currently we have in something like the sched_switch event: field:char prev_comm[TASK_COMM_LEN]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1; When a userspace tool such as perf tries to parse this, the TASK_COMM_LEN is meaningless. This is done because the TRACE_EVENT() macro simply uses a #len to show the string of the length. When the length is an enum, we get a string that means nothing for tools. By adding a static buffer and a mutex to protect it, we can store the string into that buffer with snprintf and show the actual number. Now we get: field:char prev_comm[16]; offset:12; size:16; signed:1; Something much more useful.
