Subject: ring-buffer: Check for valid buffer before changing size
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6a31e1f135d1abfb5137697f889c8cd5d72eb522;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

ring-buffer: Check for valid buffer before changing size

On some machines the number of possible CPUS is not the same as the
number of CPUs that is on the machine. Ftrace uses possible_cpus to
update the tracing structures but the ring buffer only allocates
per cpu buffers for online CPUs when they come up.

When the wakeup tracer was enabled in such a case, the ftrace code
enabled all possible cpu buffers, but the code in ring_buffer_resize()
did not check to see if the buffer in question was allocated. Since
boot up CPUs did not match possible CPUs it caused the following
crash:

This happens with the latency tracer as the ftrace code updates the
saved max buffer via its cpumask and not with a global setting.

Adding a check in ring_buffer_resize() to make sure the buffer being resized
exists, fixes the problem.
