Subject: [PATCH 1/2] tracing/filters: strloc should be unsigned short
Date: Fri, 29 May 2009 16:41:10 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A1F9FA6.3030906@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
I forgot to update filter code accordingly in
"tracing/events: change the type of __str_loc_item to unsigned short"
(commt b0aae68cc5508f3c2fbf728988c954db4c8b8a53)
It can cause system crash:
# echo 1 > tracing/events/irq/irq_handler_entry/enable
# echo 'name == eth0' > /mnt/tracing/events/irq/irq_handler_entry/filter
[ Impact: fix system crash while filtering on __string() field ]
