Subject: [PATCH 5/7] tracing: Fix preempt count leak
Date: Sat, 08 Jan 2011 15:16:04 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110108201645.768731043@goodmis.org> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: 0005-tracing-Fix-preempt-count-leak.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1408 bytes --]

From: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com>

While running my ftrace stress test, this showed up:

BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/mmap.c:233
...
note: cat[3293] exited with preempt_count 1

The bug was introduced by commit 91e86e560d0b3ce4c5fc64fd2bbb99f856a30a4e
("tracing: Fix recursive user stack trace")
