From ec9c4352b97d2aae6437983529b3df669bfcbb61 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathieu Desnoyers Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2011 19:05:26 -0400 Subject: tracepoints-improve-documentation-sample After reading the tracepoints.txt documentation, I tried to follow the instructions to run the sample, but just assigning CONFIG_SAMPLE_TRACEPOINTS=m wasn't enough to generate the tracepoints samples. I also need to set CONFIG_SAMPLES=y, otherwise nothing happens. So, this silly patch explicit says that CONFIG_SAMPLES should be set to compile those files.
