tracer_tracing_disable(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to tracer_tracing_disable(9) from the Kernel API Manual — it's giving "pause the buffer" energy, and the whole lore is right here. ✨💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

tracer_tracing_disable — temporary disable the buffer from write. Slay. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void tracer_tracing_disable (struct trace_array *tr );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• tr — The trace array to disable its buffer for. That's the main character of this call, no cap. 💖

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so here's the vibe: this call expects trace_tracing_enable to re-enable tracing — like, bestie, it's lowkey waiting for the comeback. 😭✨

The difference between this and tracer_tracing_off is that this is a counter and can nest — whereas, tracer_tracing_off can be called multiple times and a single trace_tracing_on will enable it. That's the whole iconic distinction, periodt. 🦋
