From 1092307d582a7566d23779c304cf86f3075ac5f0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2009 23:40:11 -0500 Subject: trace: set max latency variable to zero on default Impact: trace max latencies on start of latency tracing This patch sets the max latency to zero whenever one of the irq variant tracers or the wakeup tracer is set to current tracer. Most developers expect to see output when starting up a latency tracer. But since the max_latency is already set to max, and it takes a latency greater than max_latency to be recorded, there is no trace. This is not the expected behavior and has even confused myself.
