Subject: [PATCH] arm64: use preempt_disable_notrace in _percpu_read/write
Date: Thu,  8 Sep 2016 20:46:42 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1473338802-18712-1-git-send-email-zhang.chunyan@linaro.org> (raw)

When debug preempt or preempt tracer is enabled, preempt_count_add/sub()
can be traced by function and function graph tracing, and
preempt_disable/enable() would call preempt_count_add/sub(), so in Ftrace
subsystem we should use preempt_disable/enable_notrace instead.

In the commit 345ddcc882d8 ("ftrace: Have set_ftrace_pid use the bitmap
like events do") the function this_cpu_read() was added to
trace_graph_entry(), and if this_cpu_read() calls preempt_disable(), graph
tracer will go into a recursive loop, even if the tracing_on is
disabled.

So this patch change to use preempt_enable/disable_notrace instead in
this_cpu_read().

Since Yonghui Yang helped a lot to find the root cause of this problem,
so also add his SOB.
