Subject: [PATCH] sched: Enabled schedstat when schedstat tracepoints are
enabled
From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@...dmis.org>
During my tests, I see this in my dmesg:
"Scheduler tracepoints stat_sleep, stat_iowait, stat_blocked and
stat_runtime require the kernel parameter schedstats=enabled or kernel.sched_schedstats=1"
And found the commit:
cb2517653fc ("sched/debug: Make schedstats a runtime tunable that is disabled by default")
Which states:
"For tracepoints, there is a simple warning as it's not safe to activate
schedstats in the context when it's known the tracepoint may be wanted
but is unavailable."
I'm assuming that Mel did not know about the TRACE_EVENT_FN() and
DEFINE_EVENT_FN() that allow for callbacks for tracepoints as they are
enabled and disabled. I do not see any reason for not enabling
schedstat when one of its tracepoints are enabled.
The state of schedstat is saved when the first tracepoint is enabled,
and that state is put back when the tracepoints are disabled.
