There's currently a way to select a task that should only have its events traced, but there's no way to select a task not to have itsevents traced. Add a set_event_notrace_pid file that acts the same as set_event_pid (and is also affected by event-fork), but the task pids in this file will not be traced even if they are listed in the set_event_pid file. This makes it easy for tools like trace-cmd to "hide" itself from beint traced by events when it is recording other tasks. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
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.
