Oh, I overlooked it. TRACE_SYSTEM defines the directory name in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events. A trace event belongs to a trace system: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/available_events ext3:ext3_free_inode ext3:ext3_request_inode ... ext3 is the SYSTEM name. TRACE_INCLUDE_FILE is needed if the .h filename is different than the SYSTEM name. If the .h file is not in include/trace/events, then you must use TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH to specify where the file is. I'm not sure if there're any other maros need special treatment. -- 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/
