Subject: [PATCH 4.14 46/89] tracing/blktrace: Fix to allow setting same value
4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@...dmis.org>
commit 757d9140072054528b13bbe291583d9823cde195 upstream.
Masami Hiramatsu reported:
Current trace-enable attribute in sysfs returns an error
if user writes the same setting value as current one,
e.g.
# cat /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
0
# echo 0 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busy
But this is not a preferred behavior, it should ignore
if new setting is same as current one. This fixes the
problem as below.
# cat /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
0
# echo 0 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
