Subject: [PATCH] tracepoints: prevents null probe from being added
Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2013 12:18:17 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1363749497-12176-1-git-send-email-kpark3469@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Sahara <keun-o.park@windriver.com>
Somehow tracepoint_entry_add/remove_probe functions allow a null probe
function. Especially on getting a null probe in remove function, it seems
to be used to remove all probe functions in the entry.
But, the code is not handled as expected. Since the tracepoint_entry
maintains funcs array's last func as NULL in order to mark it as the end
of the array. Also NULL func is used in for-loop to check out the end of
the loop. So if there's NULL func in the entry's funcs, the for-loop
will be abruptly ended in the middle of operation.
Also checking out if probe is null in for-loop is not efficient.
