[PATCH v4 3/4] ftrace: Have funcgraph-args take affect during tracing

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Date: 2025-02-27 18:57:39
Also in: bpf, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, tracing · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Steven Rostedt, Masami Hiramatsu

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Currently, when function_graph is started, it looks at the option
funcgraph-args, and if it is set, it will enable tracing of the arguments.

But if tracing is already running, and the user enables funcgraph-args, it
will have no effect. Instead, it should enable argument tracing when it is
enabled, even if it means disabling the function graph tracing for a short
time in order to do the transition.
