Subject: [PATCH] tracing: fix memcpy size when copying stack entries
Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2023 18:07:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230612160748.4082850-1-svens@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
Noticed the following warning during boot:
[ 2.316341] Testing tracer wakeup:
[ 2.383512] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 2.383517] memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 104) of single field "&entry->caller" at kernel/trace/trace.c:3167 (size 64)
The reason seems to be that the maximum number of entries is calculated
from the size of the fstack->calls array which is 128. But later the same
size is used to memcpy() the entries to entry->callers, which has only
room for eight elements. Therefore use the minimum of both arrays as limit.
