From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Masami reported a bug when running function graph tracing then the function profiler. The following commands would cause a kernel crash: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/ # echo function_graph > current_tracer # echo 1 > function_profile_enabled In that order. Create a test to test this two to make sure this does not come back as a regression.

Otherwise the clean up can happen before anything gets traced. Although, it's highly unlikely in this case, but still. I could add a comment if you want of just: # let it run for a bit sleep 1quoted

No need for a v2 thanks, -- Shuah
