From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" rostedt@goodmis.org Date: Fri, 26 Nov 2021 13:35:26 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Check pid filtering when creating events
When pid filtering is activated in an instance, all of the events trace files for that instance has the PID_FILTER flag set. This determines whether or not pid filtering needs to be done on the event, otherwise the event is executed as normal.
If pid filtering is enabled when an event is created (via a dynamic event or modules), its flag is not updated to reflect the current state, and the events are not filtered properly.
