If I boot without any tracing enabled from the cmdline and: echo 0 > tracing_on echo function_graph > current_tracer echo do_idle > set_graph_function echo 1 > tracing_on I don't get any output either. It works for other functions, such as echo ktime_get > set_graph_function It seems it's the set_graph_function thing that isn't working with do_idle at all after this patch. Why just this function... The function is clearly there: cat available_filter_functions | grep do_idle do_idle I can also verify that this function is indeed getting invoked by adding prints to it (it's invoked all the time on any normal system). Does this have something to do with the context where do_idle is called? It's all really confusing... Yours, Linus Walleij
