From b8ebfd3f7113b63dda93d76bfec638c00e6bd514 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2013 19:02:04 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] tracing/function: Avoid perf_trace_buf_*() if event_function.perf_events is empty perf_trace_buf_prepare() + perf_trace_buf_submit(head, task => NULL) make no sense if hlist_empty(head). Change perf_ftrace_function_call() to check event_function.perf_events beforehand.
