struct trace_entry->type is unsigned char, while trace event's id is
int type, thus for a event with id >= 256, it's entry->type is cast
to (id % 256), and then we can't see the trace output of this event.

Indeed, now with the trace_events, we are approaching this possible
overflow and the type is indeed an int:
struct trace_event *ftrace_find_event(int type)
Curious: does it only happen with the trace-event-sample?
I doubt we already reached this threshold of event number.
But anyway, it's a good thing.

I guess we haven't reached this limit, at least for mainline. :)
And the biggest id is 48 in my config.

I think we'll hit 256 pretty soon :) Applied, thanks guys!
Btw., has anyone thought about a .config option that turns every
dprintk into a tracepoint, enumerated in /debug/tracing/events/
nicely (grouped by subsystems) and toggle-able?
( They cannot have 'format' and 'filter' files [at least yet] - but
integrating them into the existing tracing facilities makes sense
nevertheless - they are often used as subsystem tracepoints.
Allowing them to be captured via the tracing facilities would make
their usage a lot more flexible. )

I sent out a patch before making this a short. I don't know why it got
lost. A short is 65536, which should be more than enough to hold all the
necessary events. It also makes the first few items fit nicely into 4
bytes.
I'll go dig that patch out again and resend it.

Ingo,
We need to make type 2 bytes not 4.
I sent out a patch to do this change last month

yeah, saw that - it's OK with 2 bytes too.

Mind resending it in your next batch of patches?

Ah, I didn't notice that patch, and I thought ushort may be too
small for modular TRACE_EVENT.
