[LU-14428] Convert tracefile to use ring_buffer from linux

• Status: Open
• Project: Lustre
• Type: Improvement
• Priority: Minor
• Reporter: Neil Brown
• Assignee: Neil Brown
• Resolution: Unresolved

Description

Linux contains a ring_buffer which supports low-overhead appends for messages.

This is similar to the trace log in tracefile.c, but with lower overhead.

Converting to use this removes a lot of code and reduces duplication for when we merge lustre upstream.
