From: Steven Rostedt Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2012 01:37:32 +0000 (-0500) Subject: tracing: Don't use p->len field to determine output in __print_*() functions X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5b34926114e39e12005031269613d2b13194aeba;p=linux-beck.git tracing: Don't use p->len field to determine output in __print_*() functions If more than one __print_*() function is used in a tracepoint (__print_flags(), __print_symbols(), etc), then the temp seq buffer will not be zero on entry. Using the temp seq buffer's length to know if data has been printed or not in the current function is incorrect and may produce incorrect results. Currently, no in-tree tracepoint causes this bug, but new ones may be created.
