From 873c642f5964b260480850040dec21e42d0ae4e4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" Date: Mon, 4 Mar 2013 23:26:06 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Clear all trace buffers when unloaded module event was used Currently we do not know what buffer a module event was enabled in. On unload, it is safest to clear all buffer instances, not just the top level buffer. Todo: Clear only the buffer that the event was used in. The infrastructure is there to do this, but it makes the code a bit more complex. Lets get the current code vetted before we add that.
