This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled cxl/trace: Properly initialize cxl_poison region name to the 6.6-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: cxl-trace-properly-initialize-cxl_poison-region-name.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 9251464200d978433a0c450763e2ec5f7be55455 Author: Alison Schofield <alison.schofield@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Mar 14 13:12:17 2024 -0700 cxl/trace: Properly initialize cxl_poison region name [ Upstream commit 6c871260965255a1c142fb77ccee58b172d1690b ] The TP_STRUCT__entry that gets assigned the region name, or an empty string if no region is present, is erroneously initialized to the cxl_region pointer. It needs to be properly initialized otherwise it's length is wrong and garbage chars can appear in the kernel trace output: /sys/kernel/tracing/trace The bad initialization was due in part to a naming conflict with the parameter: struct cxl_region *region. The field 'region' is already exposed externally as the region name, so changing that to something logical, like 'region_name' is not an option. Instead rename the internal only struct cxl_region to the commonly used 'cxlr'. Impact is that tooling depending on that trace data can miss picking up a valid event when searching by region name. The TP_printk() output, if enabled, does emit the correct region names in the dmesg log. This was found during testing of the cxl-list option to report media-errors for a region.
