[PATCH] selftests/ftrace: Fix reading enabled_functions in add_remove_fprobe_module test

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Date: 2026-07-08 19:32:44
Also in: linux-kselftest, lkml
Subsystem: kernel selftest framework, the rest, tracing · Maintainers: Shuah Khan, Linus Torvalds, Steven Rostedt, Masami Hiramatsu

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The add_remove_fprobe_module test checks the number of functions added to
the enabled_functions file to make sure that the functions added or
removed is as expected. The issue is that it expects this file to be empty
on start up.

Now that systemd uses BPF that attaches to functions via ftrace, this file
is not empty in several systems:

 # cat /sys/kernel/tracing/enabled_functions
 bpf_lsm_file_open (1) R   D   M 	tramp: ftrace_regs_caller+0x0/0x61 (call_direct_funcs+0x0/0x50)
	direct(jmp)-->bpf_trampoline_6442529439+0x0/0xe9

Change the test to read the number of lines in enabled_functions at the
start of the test and subtract that from the value of the count for the
checks within the test.
