Subject: [061/102] tracing: Have "enable" file use refcounts like the "filter" file
Date: Wed, 03 Aug 2011 15:01:21 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110803221250.158324848@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110803221345.GA10346@kroah.com>
3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
commit 40ee4dffff061399eb9358e0c8fcfbaf8de4c8fe upstream.
The "enable" file for the event system can be removed when a module
is unloaded and the event system only has events from that module.
As the event system nr_events count goes to zero, it may be freed
if its ref_count is also set to zero.
Like the "filter" file, the "enable" file may be opened by a task and
referenced later, after a module has been unloaded and the events for
that event system have been removed.
Although the "filter" file referenced the event system structure,
the "enable" file only references a pointer to the event system
name. Since the name is freed when the event system is removed,
it is possible that an access to the "enable" file may reference
a freed pointer.
Update the "enable" file to use the subsystem_open() routine that
the "filter" file uses, to keep a reference to the event system
structure while the "enable" file is opened.
