Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ftrace: Fix kmemleak in unregister_ftrace_graph
Date: Wed, 04 Oct 2017 11:22:37 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171004152429.615892743@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171004152236.000114616@goodmis.org>

[-- Attachment #1: 0001-ftrace-Fix-kmemleak-in-unregister_ftrace_graph.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2898 bytes --]

From: Shu Wang <shuwang@redhat.com>

The trampoline allocated by function tracer was overwriten by function_graph
tracer, and caused a memory leak. The save_global_trampoline should have
saved the previous trampoline in register_ftrace_graph() and restored it in
unregister_ftrace_graph(). But as it is implemented, save_global_trampoline was
only used in unregister_ftrace_graph as default value 0, and it overwrote the
previous trampoline's value. Causing the previous allocated trampoline to be
lost.

  Looking further into this, I found that this was left over from when the
  function and function graph tracers shared the same ftrace_ops. But in
  commit 5f151b2401 ("ftrace: Fix function_profiler and function tracer
  together"), the two were separated, and the save_global_trampoline no
  longer was necessary (and it may have been broken back then too).
