Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Reject .function on the function trace event
Date: Sat, 14 Nov 2026 19:59:14 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261114195914.2678414-1-devnexen@gmail.com> (raw)

For the function event, parse_pred() handles the .function suffix
before the ftrace_event_is_function() case, so "ip.function == schedule"
builds a predicate with no regex. Setting it through perf then
dereferences the NULL pred->regex in ftrace_function_set_filter_pred().

The "ip" field of that event already takes a function name, so reject
the suffix there.

Fixes: e6745a4da964 ("tracing: Add a way to filter function addresses to function names")
