Steven Rostedt (Google) 7e39c55ee0 tracing / synthetic: Disable events after testing in synth_event_gen_test_init()
commit 88b30c7f5d27e1594d70dc2bd7199b18f2b57fa9 upstream.

The synth_event_gen_test module can be built in, if someone wants to run
the tests at boot up and not have to load them.

The synth_event_gen_test_init() function creates and enables the synthetic
events and runs its tests.

The synth_event_gen_test_exit() disables the events it created and
destroys the events.

If the module is builtin, the events are never disabled. The issue is, the
events should be disable after the tests are run. This could be an issue
if the rest of the boot up tests are enabled, as they expect the events to
be in a known state before testing. That known state happens to be
disabled.

When CONFIG_SYNTH_EVENT_GEN_TEST=y and CONFIG_EVENT_TRACE_STARTUP_TEST=y
a warning will trigger:

 Running tests on trace events:
 Testing event create_synth_test:
 Enabled event during self test!

This is because the synth_event_gen_test_init() left the synthetic events
that it created enabled. By having it disable them after testing, the
other selftests will run fine.

README

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.
