Merge tag 'probes-fixes-v7.3-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace
Pull probe fixes from Masami Hiramatsu: - kprobes: Fix permanent hang when flushing the kprobe optimizer Fix a deadlock when disabling kprobe optimization via sysctl or debugfs where flushers hung waiting for optimizer_completion. Replaced the completion with an optimizer_passes counter and wait_var_event_mutex() under kprobe_mutex so concurrent flushers can wait and wake up safely. - fprobe: Terminate the fgraph_data list when the reservation is not filled Fix an issue where unused shadow stack data left uninitialized by fprobe_fgraph_entry() was misparsed as stale fprobe headers on return. Explicitly write a zero word to terminate the list and update read_fprobe_header() to handle the zeroed slot properly. - ftracetest: Fix unique symbol check in kprobe_non_uniq_symbol.tc Fix false test failures in kprobe_non_uniq_symbol.tc on architectures like s390 where a symbol exists once in core kernel but also in modules. Anchor the /proc/kallsyms search regex to the end of the line so that module symbols are not incorrectly counted. * tag 'probes-fixes-v7.3-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: kprobes: Fix permanent hang when flushing the kprobe optimizer fprobe: Terminate the fgraph_data list when the reservation is not filled selftests/ftrace: Fix unique symbol check in kprobe_non_uniq_symbol.tc
