From e0213434fe3e4a0d118923dc98d31e7ff1cd9e45 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" rostedt@goodmis.org Date: Wed, 1 Mar 2023 20:00:52 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Do not let histogram values have some modifiers
Histogram values can not be strings, stacktraces, graphs, symbols, syscalls, or grouped in buckets or log. Give an error if a value is set to do so.
Note, the histogram code was not prepared to handle these modifiers for histograms and caused a bug.
