Subject: [PATCH 1/3] parisc: don't use dereference_function_descriptor() in trace stub
Date: Tue, 19 Oct 2021 20:31:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211019183152.26191-2-svens@stackframe.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211019183152.26191-1-svens@stackframe.org>
dereference_function_descriptor() calls get_kernel_nofault(),
which itself might call into tracing. This leads to a deadlock.
Instead of reverting back to casts to compare whether there's
a trace function set, just always call the appropriate trace function.
With dynamic ftrace this function shouldn't be called at all
when ftrace is disabled. It adds a function call for the non-dynamic
case, but people concerned about the costs of ftrace should use
dynamic ftrace anyways.
