Subject: [PATCH 0/7] tracing: Kill the buggy trace_cpu
Date: Mon, 22 Jul 2013 15:43:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130722134313.GA18328@redhat.com> (raw)

Hello.

Only slightly tested so far. I'll try to test more and report
the results.

Meanwhile it would be nice if you can take a look and review.


This series kills tracing_open_generic_tc/trace_cpu/etc.

trace_array_get(inode->i_private) is mostly fine, we do not
dereference this pointer untill trace_array_get() succeeds.
But trace_array_get(tc->tr) is wrong by the same reason why
tracing_open_generic_file/etc are wrong, see 1/7.

And not only trace_cpu is buggy, we can simplify the code if
we kill this member.

Oleg.
