[lttng-dev] Suspected Bug in lttng-tools

[Shubham Kulkarni]

Hi,

Please ignore the previous mail from me saying there might be a bug in
lttng-tools. After some analysis, I found this is expected functionality as
per the commit https://github.com/lttng/lttng-tools/commit/cb034ca.
It's NOT A BUG.

Thanks,
Shubham
