If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Zheng Yejian [ Upstream commit f6bd2c92488c30ef53b5bd80c52f0a7eee9d545a ] When user resize all trace ring buffer through file 'buffer_size_kb', then in ring_buffer_resize(), kernel allocates buffer pages for each cpu in a loop. If the kernel preemption model is PREEMPT_NONE and there are many cpus and there are many buffer pages to be allocated, it may not give up cpu for a long time and finally cause a softlockup. To avoid it, call cond_resched() after each cpu buffer allocation.
