[ Upstream commit b55b0a0d7c ]
If a large event was added to the ring buffer that is larger than what the
trace_seq can handle, it just drops the output:
~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace
# tracer: nop
#
# entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 2/2 #P:8
#
# _-----=> irqs-off/BH-disabled
# / _----=> need-resched
# | / _---=> hardirq/softirq
# || / _--=> preempt-depth
# ||| / _-=> migrate-disable
# |||| / delay
# TASK-PID CPU# ||||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
# | | | ||||| | |
<...>-859 [001] ..... 141.118951: tracing_mark_write <...>-859 [001] ..... 141.148201: tracing_mark_write: 78901234
Instead, catch this case and add some context:
~# cat /sys/kernel/tracing/trace
# tracer: nop
#
# entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 2/2 #P:8
#
# _-----=> irqs-off/BH-disabled
# / _----=> need-resched
# | / _---=> hardirq/softirq
# || / _--=> preempt-depth
# ||| / _-=> migrate-disable
# |||| / delay
# TASK-PID CPU# ||||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
# | | | ||||| | |
<...>-852 [001] ..... 121.550551: tracing_mark_write[LINE TOO BIG]
<...>-852 [001] ..... 121.550581: tracing_mark_write: 78901234
This now emulates the same output as trace_pipe.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
