Subject: [for-next-3.11][PATCH 0/8] ftrace/tracing: Event file fixes and ftrace function hash fixes
Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2013 07:27:18 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130730112718.273490378@goodmis.org> (raw)

Oleg has been continuing his work on fixing a race between opening an
event file and deleting that same event. Using the i_private and event_mutex
to verify that the event still exists to solve the race.

A long standing bug on the ftrace hash accounting has finally been figured
out. When tracing a module that is removed and then reloaded, the function
filter hash gets out of sync with the function record's ref count which
causes a nasty warning and disabling of the function tracer.

Head SHA1: 6fd52fce057b55cc1bba463e6f05536a76c058b4


Oleg Nesterov (6):
      tracing: Turn event/id->i_private into call->event.type
      tracing: Change event_enable/disable_read() to verify i_private != NULL
      tracing: Change event_filter_read/write to verify i_private != NULL
      tracing: Change f_start() to take event_mutex and verify i_private != NULL
      tracing: Introduce remove_event_file_dir()
      tracing: Change remove_event_file_dir() to clear "d_subdirs"->i_private

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) (2):
      ftrace: Consolidate some duplicate code for updating ftrace ops
      ftrace: Clear module traced functions on unload module
