There's no reason to return -EINVAL when tracing a synthetic event if it's soft disabled - treat it the same as if it were hard disabled and return normally. Have synth_event_trace() and synth_event_trace_array() just return normally, and have synth_event_trace_start set the trace state to disabled and return.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
