From: Steven Rostedt Date: Sat, 13 Mar 2010 00:41:23 +0000 (-0500) Subject: function-graph: Init curr_ret_stack with ret_stack X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~10186^2~2015 X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=090fe6cbe1fe9f15a219e38c0edea6960dcadb69;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git function-graph: Init curr_ret_stack with ret_stack commit ea14eb714041d40fcc5180b5a586034503650149 upstream. If the graph tracer is active, and a task is forked but the allocating of the processes graph stack fails, it can cause crash later on. This is due to the temporary stack being NULL, but the curr_ret_stack variable is copied from the parent. If it is not -1, then in ftrace_graph_probe_sched_switch() the following: for (index = next->curr_ret_stack; index >= 0; index--) next->ret_stack[index].calltime += timestamp; Will cause a kernel OOPS. Found with Li Zefan's ftrace_stress_test.
