Sorry, I must be missing something.
What patches did you apply and how are you testing?
With the whole traces fixes series applied first, then the new "trace:
take live traces via telemetry" patch applied, I can't reproduce your
issue.
Here is what I did:
$ ./build/app/dpdk-testpmd -c 3 --no-huge -m 40 -a 0:0.0 -d
build-gcc/drivers --vdev net_null1 --vdev net_null2 --trace=.* --
--no-mlockall --total-num-mbufs=2048 -ia
--> /trace/save
{"/trace/save": {"Status": "OK", "Path":
"/home/dmarchan/dpdk-traces/rte-2022-10-13-PM-05-44-56"}}
At this point, the trace file contains events until:
...

already_done is used to create the trace directory once, and log a
message with this directory path once.
