I found that in the latest version, the nodes of tracefs have been changed to dynamically created. This has caused me to encounter a problem where the gid I specified in the mounting parameters cannot apply to all files, as in the following situation: /data/tmp/events # mount | grep tracefs tracefs on /data/tmp type tracefs (rw,seclabel,relatime,gid=3012) gid 3012 = readtracefs /data/tmp # ls -lh total 0 -r--r----- 1 root readtracefs 0 1970-01-01 08:00 README -r--r----- 1 root readtracefs 0 1970-01-01 08:00 available_events ums9621_1h10:/data/tmp/events # ls -lh total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2023-12-19 00:56 alarmtimer drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 2023-12-19 00:56 asoc It will prevent certain applications from accessing tracefs properly, I try to avoid this issue by making the following modifications.

Thanks for the report, can you try this fix instead? -- Steve
