# \[PATCH v8 03/21\] tracing/remotes: Use kstrtobool for boolean tracefs files - From: Vincent Donnefort \ - Date: 2026-11-06 18:07:47 - List: linux-trace-kernel - Page: https://ratatoskr.run/linux-trace-kernel/2026/11/17880560 - Thread: https://ratatoskr.run/linux-trace-kernel/2026/11/17880557/t.md ```text Use kstrtobool in trace_remote.c where possible. This is more user-friendly as it allows a better variety of input strings.
