It looks like there are two functions: packet_write() and packet_buf_write(). Your patch only touches one of them, and it looks like we would fail to trace many packets (e.g., see receive-pack.c:report(), which uses packet_buf_write() and then write()s out the result). -Peff PS Also, s/send/sent/ in the commit message.
