trace pipe output

blktrace produces zero output, so I'm attaching trace pipe output while running
this test application.

I tried using blktrace this way:

# mount -t debugfs nul /sys/kernel/debug
# echo blk > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/sda3/trace/enable

# blktrace /dev/sda3
BLKTRACESETUP(2) /dev/sda3 failed: 16/Device or resource busy
Thread 0 failed open /sys/kernel/debug/block/(null)/trace0: 2/No such file or
directory
Thread 1 failed open /sys/kernel/debug/block/(null)/trace1: 2/No such file or
directory
