From 8f6e8a314ab37cadd72da5ace9027f2d04aba854 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2009 21:53:41 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: user local buffer variable for trace branch tracer Just using the tr->buffer for the API to trace_buffer_lock_reserve is not good enough. This is because the tr->buffer may change, and we do not want to commit with a different buffer that we reserved from. This patch uses a local variable to hold the buffer that was used to reserve and commit with.
