Subject: [GIT PULL] tracefs: Updates for v7.1
Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2026 07:57:53 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260414075753.2a036358@robin> (raw)
Linus,
tracefs updates for 7.1:
- Simplify error handling with guards()
Use guards() to simplify the handling of releasing locks in exit paths.
- Use dentry name snapshots instead of allocation
Instead of allocating a temp buffer to store the dentry name to use in
mkdir() and rmdir() use take_dentry_name_snapshot().
- Fix default permissions not being applied at boot
The default permissions for tracefs was 0700 to only allow root having
access. But after a change to fix other mount options the update to
permissions ignored the defined default and used the system default of
0755. This is a regression and is fixed.
Please pull the latest tracefs-v7.1 tree, which can be found at:
