From 27d7fdf06fdb84455ff585b58c8034e2fab42583 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ross Zwisler Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2023 14:56:27 -0600 Subject: bpf: use canonical ftrace path The canonical location for the tracefs filesystem is at /sys/kernel/tracing. But, from Documentation/trace/ftrace.rst: Before 4.1, all ftrace tracing control files were within the debugfs file system, which is typically located at /sys/kernel/debug/tracing. For backward compatibility, when mounting the debugfs file system, the tracefs file system will be automatically mounted at: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing Many comments and samples in the bpf code still refer to this older debugfs path, so let's update them to avoid confusion. There are a few spots where the bpf code explicitly checks both tracefs and debugfs (tools/bpf/bpftool/tracelog.c and tools/lib/api/fs/fs.c) and I've left those alone so that the tools can continue to work with both paths.
