i've got some syntactic nits:

magic constant '3' needs a comment at least.
> + if (trace_opts) { > + for (i = 0; trace_opts[i].name; i++) { > + if (tracer_flags & trace_opts[i].bit) > + r += sprintf(buf + r, "%s ", > + trace_opts[i].name); > + else > + r += sprintf(buf + r, "no%s ", > + trace_opts[i].name); > + } > + }
how about making a dummy empty trace_opts for all tracers (set by plugin init if the init function finds a NULL there) - that way the 'if (trace_opts)' can go away and you can just iterate away on that array of options.

one tab too much. Also, the condition can be avoided by creating a dummy ->set_flag() that just returns 0.

variable should be one line higher, to not break the upside down christmas tree layout. [ :-) ]

please look at the file you modify and try to clone the micro-style it follows. For example in this file it would be more standard to use vertical alignment for structure definitions:
> +struct tracer_flags { > + u32 val; > + struct tracer_opt *opts; > +};
> + > +/* Makes more easy to define a tracer opt */ > +#define TRACER_OPT(s, b) .name = #s, .bit = b
ditto.

also note how the 'int set);' line is unnecessarily broken to a separate line - it could be in the same line where the set_flag field begins.

spurious looking newline insertion.
