The TP_printk() is what will be shown in the print format of the event "format" file, and is what trace-cmd and perf use to parse the data and know what to print. If you use "action_name[result]" that will be what the user space tools see, and will have no idea what to do with "action_name[result]". The hard coded output is a bit more explicit in how to interpret the raw data. Another way around this is to create a "plugin" that can be loaded and will override the TP_printk() parsing. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
