Subject: [PATCH 2/3] tracing: create menuconfig for tracing infrastructure
Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2009 11:43:27 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090420154400.576625110@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090420154325.698204138@goodmis.org>

[-- Attachment #1: 0002-tracing-create-menuconfig-for-tracing-infrastructur.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1238 bytes --]

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

During testing we often use randconfig to test various kernels.
The current configuration set up does not give an easy way to disable
all tracing with a single config. The case where randconfig would
test all tracing disabled is very unlikely.

This patch adds a config option to enable or disable all tracing.
It is hooked into the tracing menu just like other submenus are done.

[ Impact: allow randconfig to easily produce all traces disabled ]
