Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] Make xentrace hypercall a bit more sane
George Dunlap wrote:
xentrace, setsize and the hypervisor don't seem to be on the same
page. If tracing is not enabled, the hypercall will only allow
TBUF_SET_SIZE and TBUF_ENABLE. However, set_size calls TBUF_GET_INFO,
and xentrace wants to call TBUF_SET_EVT_MASK and TBUF_SET_CPU_MASK
before calling TBUF_ENABLE.
I don't see any reason not to call SET_*_MASK and GET_INFO if tracing
is not enabled. If the buffer hasn't been allocated yet, GET_INFO
should just return something invalid in the mfn field. Anyone calling
should check this value.
Sounds benign enough. I never liked the behavior of disallowing the
get_info call.
