[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 1/2] trace: Export anonymous tracing

Chris Wilson chris at chris-wilson.co.uk
Sun Mar 1 15:52:47 UTC 2020


To facilitate construction of per-client event ringbuffers, in
particular for a per-client debug and error report log, it would be
extremely useful to create an anonymous file that can be handed to
userspace so that it can see its and only its events. trace already
provides a means of encapsulating the trace ringbuffer into a struct
file that can be opened via the tracefs, and so with a couple of minor
tweaks can provide the same access via an anonymous inode.
