In that case, I think it's easy to know that event c is irq
related event by checking source code. :-)
And practically, in most cases, I think we can presume what
happened by event arguments and subsequent events.
Anyway, since there must be a delay between hitting event(and
as linus said, happening event) and logging it, I think buffering
mechanism itself should focus on ensuring only writing and
reading order.
Thank you,
