Actually, I'm not sure anymore if we should delete the !multi samples... I realized that they are also used as part of the ftrace selftests in: - tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/test.d/direct/ftrace-direct.tc - tools/testing/selftests/ftrace/test.d/direct/kprobe-direct.tc It does not really make sense to use the ftrace-direct-muti sample as a drop-in replacement for the ftrace-direct sample there since they don't really do the same thing so we would either need to change the test a bit or the multi sample. Also, we would still need to adapt the ftrace-direct-too sample since it has no multi equivalent and is required there.Let's not delete the samples, and they do test slightly different use cases (although the code may be somewhat the same). I rather still keep that test coverage. -- Steve
Ack :) Thanks Steve! I'll undo the work I've started to do on this and send a v2 shortly afterward.
