This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tracing: Increase trace array ref count on enable and filter files to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: tracing-increase-trace-array-ref-count-on-enable-and.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 66f424e3596f3f04a6f7939dc01261bfd5c6401f Author: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Sep 6 22:47:12 2023 -0400 tracing: Increase trace array ref count on enable and filter files [ Upstream commit f5ca233e2e66dc1c249bf07eefa37e34a6c9346a ] When the trace event enable and filter files are opened, increment the trace array ref counter, otherwise they can be accessed when the trace array is being deleted. The ref counter keeps the trace array from being deleted while those files are opened.
