Subject: [PATCH 2/2] blktrace: unlink blk directory on final trace close
Date: Thu, 15 Jul 2010 10:20:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100715172048.GC12953@hexapodia.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100715171937.GA12953@hexapodia.org>

blktrace fails to completely clean up after itself if BLKTRACESTOP is
called before the final trace file is closed:

% blktrace /dev/sdb &
% exec 6</sys/kernel/debug/block/sdb/trace0
% kill %1
% find /sys/kernel/debug/block/
/sys/kernel/debug/block/
/sys/kernel/debug/block/sdb
/sys/kernel/debug/block/sdb/trace0
% exec 6<&-
% find /sys/kernel/debug/block/
/sys/kernel/debug/block/
/sys/kernel/debug/block/sdb

The proper fix is to move cleanup from BLKTRACESTOP to the close
routine, but that's nontrivial, so here's a simple fix to remove
debug/block/<dev> when the last trace%d file is closed.
