From b9416997603ef7e17d4de10b6408f19da2feb72c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Srivatsa S. Bhat (VMware)" Date: Mon, 28 Jan 2019 17:55:53 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Fix documentation about disabling options using trace_options To disable a tracing option using the trace_options file, the option name needs to be prefixed with 'no', and not suffixed, as the README states. Fix it. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/154872690031.47356.5739053380942044586.stgit@srivatsa-ubuntu Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.
