From: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> The 'perf ftrace' command fails to reset tracer after finishing recording like below:
$ sudo perf ftrace -v hello write 'nop' to tracing/current_tracer failed: Device or resource busy ... This is because the trace_pipe file is open in pager process. Move the pager setup to before opening the file.
