trace_seq: Increase the buffer size to almost two pages
Now that trace_marker can hold more than 1KB string, and can write as much as the ring buffer can hold, the trace_seq is not big enough to hold writes: ~# a="1234567890" ~# cnt=4080 ~# s="" ~# while [ $cnt -gt 10 ]; do ~# s="${s}${a}" ~# cnt=$((cnt-10)) ~# done ~# echo $s > trace_marker ~# cat trace # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 2/2 #P:8 # # _-----=> irqs-off/BH-disabled # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / _-=> migrate-disable # |||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# ||||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | ||||| | | <...>-860 [002] ..... 105.543465: tracing_mark_write[LINE TOO BIG] <...>-860 [002] ..... 105.543496: tracing_mark_write: 789012345678901234567890 By increasing the trace_seq buffer to almost two pages, it can now print out the first line. This also subtracts the rest of the trace_seq fields from the buffer, so that the entire trace_seq is now PAGE_SIZE aligned.
