Subject: [for-next][PATCH 07/23] tracing: Fix return value of trace_pid_write()
Date: Fri, 27 May 2022 22:50:35 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220528025249.937888768@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20220528025028.850906216@goodmis.org
From: Wonhyuk Yang <vvghjk1234@gmail.com>
Setting set_event_pid with trailing whitespace lead to endless write
system calls like below.
$ strace echo "123 " > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_event_pid
execve("/usr/bin/echo", ["echo", "123 "], ...) = 0
...
write(1, "123 \n", 5) = 4
write(1, "\n", 1) = 0
write(1, "\n", 1) = 0
write(1, "\n", 1) = 0
write(1, "\n", 1) = 0
write(1, "\n", 1) = 0
....
This is because, the result of trace_get_user's are not returned when it
read at least one pid. To fix it, update read variable even if
parser->idx == 0.
The result of applied patch is below.
$ strace echo "123 " > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_event_pid
execve("/usr/bin/echo", ["echo", "123 "], ...) = 0
...
write(1, "123 \n", 5) = 5
close(1) = 0
