Add the option allow the users to set a different buffer size for the trace. For example, in large systems, the user might be interested on reducing the trace buffer to avoid large tracing files. The buffer size is specified in kB, and it is only affecting the tracing instance. The function trace_set_buffer_size() appears on libtracefs v1.6, so increase the minimum required version on Makefile.config.

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 reStructuredText 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.
