From 6721cb60022629ae76365551f05d9658b8d14c55 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" Date: Thu, 23 May 2013 14:21:36 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] ring-buffer: Do not poll non allocated cpu buffers The tracing infrastructure sets up for possible CPUs, but it uses the ring buffer polling, it is possible to call the ring buffer polling code with a CPU that hasn't been allocated. This will cause a kernel oops when it access a ring buffer cpu buffer that is part of the possible cpus but hasn't been allocated yet as the CPU has never been online.
