4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
commit a7e52ad7ed82e21273eccff93d1477a7b313aabb upstream.
Chunyu Hu reported:
"per_cpu trace directories and files are created for all possible cpus,
but only the cpus which have ever been on-lined have their own per cpu
ring buffer (allocated by cpuhp threads). While trace_buffers_open, the
open handler for trace file 'trace_pipe_raw' is always trying to access
field of ring_buffer_per_cpu, and would panic with the NULL pointer.
Align the behavior of trace_pipe_raw with trace_pipe, that returns -NODEV
when openning it if that cpu does not have trace ring buffer.
Reproduce:
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/per_cpu/cpu31/trace_pipe_raw
(cpu31 is never on-lined, this is a 16 cores x86_64 box)
Tested with:
1) boot with maxcpus=14, read trace_pipe_raw of cpu15.
Got -NODEV.
2) oneline cpu15, read trace_pipe_raw of cpu15.
Get the raw trace data.

This was introduced by the addition of the feature to reuse reader pages
instead of re-allocating them. The problem is that the allocation of a
reader page (which is per cpu) does not check if the cpu is online and set
up for the ring buffer.
