This causes two bugs: 1) No functions will be enabled for tracing when they all should be 2) If the users clears the set_ftrace_filter twice, it will crash ftrace: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at /home/rostedt/work/git/linux-trace.git/kernel/trace/ftrace.c:1384 __ftrace_hash_rec_update.part.27+0x157/0x1a7() Modules linked in: Pid: 2330, comm: bash Not tainted 3.1.0-test+ #32 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81051828>] warn_slowpath_common+0x83/0x9b [<ffffffff8105185a>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x1c [<ffffffff810ba362>] __ftrace_hash_rec_update.part.27+0x157/0x1a7 [<ffffffff810ba6e8>] ? ftrace_regex_release+0xa7/0x10f [<ffffffff8111bdfe>] ? kfree+0xe5/0x115 [<ffffffff810ba51e>] ftrace_hash_move+0x2e/0x151 [<ffffffff810ba6fb>] ftrace_regex_release+0xba/0x10f [<ffffffff8112e49a>] fput+0xfd/0x1c2 [<ffffffff8112b54c>] filp_close+0x6d/0x78 [<ffffffff8113a92d>] sys_dup3+0x197/0x1c1 [<ffffffff8113a9a6>] sys_dup2+0x4f/0x54 [<ffffffff8150cac2>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b ---[ end trace 77a3a7ee73794a02 ]--- Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20111101141420.GA4918@debian Reported-by: Rabin Vincent <rabin@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- kernel/trace/ftrace.c | 4 +++- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/trace/ftrace.c b/kernel/trace/ftrace.c index 0fcc6ca..7caa450 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/ftrace.c +++ b/kernel/trace/ftrace.c @@ -1210,7 +1210,9 @@ ftrace_hash_move(struct ftrace_ops *ops, int enable, if (!src->count) { free_ftrace_hash_rcu(*dst); rcu_assign_pointer(*dst, EMPTY_HASH); - return 0; + /* still need to update the function records */ + ret = 0; + goto out; } /* -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tip-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
