If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 32abc2ede536aae52978d6c0a8944eb1df14f460 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 16 Nov 2015 17:25:16 -0500 Subject: tools lib traceevent: Fix output of %llu for 64 bit values read on 32 bit machines From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 32abc2ede536aae52978d6c0a8944eb1df14f460 upstream. When a long value is read on 32 bit machines for 64 bit output, the parsing needs to change "%lu" into "%llu", as the value is read natively. Unfortunately, if "%llu" is already there, the code will add another "l" to it and fail to parse it properly.
