Subject: [for-next][PATCH 09/18] tracing: Move pipe reference to trace array instead of current_tracer
Date: Thu, 02 Jul 2020 17:58:21 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200702215832.784471709@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20200702215812.428188663@goodmis.org
From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>
If a process has the trace_pipe open on a trace_array, the current tracer
for that trace array should not be changed. This was original enforced by a
global lock, but when instances were introduced, it was moved to the
current_trace. But this structure is shared by all instances, and a
trace_pipe is for a single instance. There's no reason that a process that
has trace_pipe open on one instance should prevent another instance from
changing its current tracer. Move the reference counter to the trace_array
instead.
This is marked as "Fixes" but is more of a clean up than a true fix.
Backport if you want, but its not critical.
Fixes: cf6ab6d9143b1 ("tracing: Add ref count to tracer for when they are being read by pipe")
