tracing/events: Don't increment @pos in s_start()
While testing syscall tracepoints posted by Jason, I found 3 entries were missing when reading available_events. The output size of available_events is < 4 pages, which means we lost 1 entry per page. The cause is, it's wrong to increment @pos in s_start(). Actually there's another bug here -- reading avaiable_events/set_events can race with module unload: # cat available_events | s_start() | s_stop() | | # rmmod foo.ko s_start() | call = list_entry(m->private) | @call might be freed and accessing it will lead to crash.
