Subject: [PATCH 02/11] tracing: Remove tracepoint sample code
Date: Sat, 02 Feb 2013 09:18:44 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130202141954.959421467@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130202141842.189550803@goodmis.org>

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 8104 bytes --]

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

The tracepoint sample code was used to teach developers how to
create their own tracepoints. But now the trace_events have been
added as a higher level that is used directly by developers today.

Only the trace_event code should use the tracepoint interface
directly and no new tracepoints should be added.

Besides, the example had a race condition with the use of the
 ->d_name.name dentry field, as pointed out by Al Viro.

Best just to remove the code so it wont be used by other developers.
