Subject: [PATCH 3/7] tracing: Remove side effect from module tracepoints that caused a GPF
Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2010 23:17:38 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100401031819.565320794@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100401031735.683626160@goodmis.org>
[-- Attachment #1: 0003-tracing-Remove-side-effect-from-module-tracepoints-t.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3468 bytes --]
From: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com>
Remove the @refcnt argument, because it has side-effects, and arguments with
side-effects are not skipped by the jump over disabled instrumentation and are
executed even when the tracepoint is disabled.
This was also causing a GPF as found by Randy Dunlap:
Subject: [PATCH 3/7] 2.6.33 GP fault only when built with tracing
LKML-Reference: <4BA2B69D.3000309@oracle.com>
Note, the current 2.6.34-rc has a fix for the actual cause of the GPF,
but this fixes one of its triggers.
