Subject: [for-linus][PATCH 03/13] tracing/osnoise: Call synchronize_rcu() when unregistering
Date: Tue, 07 Jul 2026 09:46:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260707134623.554037981@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260707134604.275787924@kernel.org

From: Crystal Wood <crwood@redhat.com>

This ensures that any RCU readers traversing the instance list
have finished, before releasing the reference on the tracer that
the instance points to.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: a6ed2aee54644 ("tracing: Switch to kvfree_rcu() API")
