.SH "NAME"
tracefs_option_enable, tracefs_option_disable, tracefs_option_name \- Various trace option functions\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
.nf
\fB#include \fR
int \fBtracefs_option_enable\fR(struct tracefs_instance *\fIinstance\fR, enum tracefs_option_id \fIid\fR);
int \fBtracefs_option_disable\fR(struct tracefs_instance *\fIinstance\fR, enum tracefs_option_id \fIid\fR);

.fi
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
This set of APIs can be used to enable and disable ftrace options and to get the name of an option\&.
.sp
The \fBtracefs_option_enable()\fR function enables the option with \fIid\fR in the given \fIinstance\fR\&. If \fIinstance\fR is NULL, the option is enabled in the top trace instance\&.
.sp
The \fBtracefs_option_disable()\fR function disables the option with \fIid\fR in the given \fIinstance\fR\&. If \fIinstance\fR is NULL, the option is disabled in the top trace instance\&.
.sp
The \fBtracefs_option_name()\fR function returns a string, representing the option with \fIid\fR\&. The string must \fBnot\fR be freed\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.sp
The \fBtracefs_option_enable()\fR and \fBtracefs_option_disable()\fR functions return 0 if the state of the option is set successfully, or \-1 in case of an error\&.
.sp
The \fBtracefs_option_name()\fR function returns string with option name, or "unknown" in case of an error\&. The returned string must \fBnot\fR be freed\&.
