From 4d5476164a052e80d4ef430e368e76dbde96801f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Sandeen Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2010 21:30:07 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: fix oops in trace_ext4_mb_release_group_pa Our QA reported an oops in the ext4_mb_release_group_pa tracing, and Josef Bacik pointed out that it was because we may have a non-null but uninitialized ac_inode in the allocation context. I can reproduce it when running xfstests with ext4 tracepoints on, on a CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG kernel. We call trace_ext4_mb_release_group_pa from 2 places, ext4_mb_discard_group_preallocations and ext4_mb_discard_lg_preallocations In both cases we allocate an ac as a container just for tracing (!) and never fill in the ac_inode. There's no reason to be assigning, testing, or printing it as far as I can see, so just remove it from the tracepoint.
