blktrace: add trace/ to /sys/block/sda
Impact: allow ftrace-plugin blktrace to trace device-mapper devices To trace a single partition: # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/sda1/enable To trace the whole sda instead: # echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/enable Thus we also fix an issue reported by Ted, that ftrace-plugin blktrace can't be used to trace device-mapper devices. Now: # echo 1 > /sys/block/dm-0/trace/enable echo: write error: No such device or address # mount -t ext4 /dev/dm-0 /mnt # echo 1 > /sys/block/dm-0/trace/enable # echo blk > /debug/tracing/current_tracer Reported-by: Theodore Tso <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Shawn Du <duyuyang@gmail.com> Cc: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> LKML-Reference: <49E42665.6020506@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
