6 * The trace_seq is a handy tool that allows you to pass a descriptor around
7 * to a buffer that other functions can write to. It is similar to the
8 * seq_file functionality but has some differences.
10 * To use it, the trace_seq must be initialized with trace_seq_init().
11 * This will set up the counters within the descriptor. You can call
12 * trace_seq_init() more than once to reset the trace_seq to start
15 * The buffer size is currently PAGE_SIZE, although it may become dynamic
18 * A write to the buffer will either succed or fail. That is, unlike
19 * sprintf() there will not be a partial write (well it may write into
20 * the buffer but it wont update the pointers). This allows users to
21 * try to write something into the trace_seq buffer and if it fails
22 * they can flush it and try again.
