This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ftrace/x86: Load ftrace_ops in parameter not the variable holding it to the 3.10-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: ftrace-x86-load-ftrace_ops-in-parameter-not-the-variable-holding-it.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 1739f09e33d8f66bf48ddbc3eca615574da6c4f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 13 Nov 2013 15:20:04 -0500 Subject: ftrace/x86: Load ftrace_ops in parameter not the variable holding it From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 1739f09e33d8f66bf48ddbc3eca615574da6c4f6 upstream. Function tracing callbacks expect to have the ftrace_ops that registered it passed to them, not the address of the variable that holds the ftrace_ops that registered it. Use a mov instead of a lea to store the ftrace_ops into the parameter of the function tracing callback.
