From 421c7860c6e1989da3962fafdd6699316c9f8e20 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2013 19:02:07 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] tracing/syscall: Avoid perf_trace_buf_*() if sys_data->perf_events is empty perf_trace_buf_prepare() + perf_trace_buf_submit(head, task => NULL) make no sense if hlist_empty(head). Change perf_syscall_enter/exit() to check sys_data->{enter,exit}_event->perf_events beforehand.
