If the function tracer is running and the trace file is read (which uses the
ring buffer iterator), the iterator can get in sync with the writes, and
caues it to fail to find a page with content it can read three times. This
causes a warning and deactivation of the ring buffer code.
Looking at the other cases of failure to get an event, it appears that
there's a chance that the writer could cause them too. Since the iterator is
a "best effort" to read the ring buffer if there's an active writer (the
consumer reader is made for this case "see trace_pipe"), if it fails to get
an event after three tries, simply give up and return NULL. Don't warn, nor
disable the ring buffer on this failure.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
