From 6fcf7ddbb73d677b3bb7b16f0fff1419cb8349e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Thu, 27 May 2010 15:46:25 +0200 Subject: perf: Don't print traces when debugging ordering Errors due to ordering bugs are easily lost in the middle of traces. When we are in this mode, don't print the traces so that we don't miss the debugging messages. But display a comforting message if we didn't encounter any ordering problem.
