4.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@xxxxxx> commit 977c1f9c8c022d0173181766b34a0db3705265a4 upstream. ftrace_shutdown() checks for sanity of ftrace records and if dyn_ftrace->flags is not zero, it will warn. It can happen that 'flags' are set to FTRACE_FL_DISABLED at this point, since some module was loaded, but before ftrace_module_enable() cleared the flags for this module. In other words the module.c is doing: ftrace_module_init(mod); // calls ftrace_update_code() that sets flags=FTRACE_FL_DISABLED ... // here ftrace_shutdown() is called that warns, since err = prepare_coming_module(mod); // didn't have a chance to clear FTRACE_FL_DISABLED Fix it by ignoring disabled records. It's similar to what __ftrace_hash_rec_update() is already doing.
