Actually, there's no interface change. This is the work-around patch to that. It's only internal to the kernel and userspace does not see any difference. I just needed a unique TRACE_SYSTEM name that was also a valid C variable, and now use TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR. The ftrace code now has: #ifndef TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR #define TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR TRACE_SYSTEM #endif And this allows trace headers (like intel-sst.h) to have a different VAR variable from the TRACE_SYSTEM name: #define TRACE_SYSTEM intel-ssl #define TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR intel_ssl This lets me use something that will work and not need to change what the user space sees. -- 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/
