Merge tag 'trace-v7.3-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-tracegrafted
Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Fix error output of boot instance creation failure Currently if a boot instance creation fails, instead of printing out the name of the instance that failed, it prints "(null)". That is because it prints "cur_str" that had already been processed by strsep(). Print the saved name instead. While at it, print the error code of the failure. - Fix use-after-free for same named historgrams Histograms can be named so that they can be used in multiple events. But if the named histogram has a variable attached, the second event that uses the named histogram which duplicates it and needs to free the original after duplication leaves the old variable in place and still visible. If another histogram uses than variable, it will use the stale one which will try to reference the freed duplicate histogram and crash the kernel. Free the duplicate variables along with the duplicated histogram data. - Check return value of kthread_run() in event self test The events self tests uses a kthread for testing but does not check if it succeeded in creating a kthread. If the kthread creation were to fail, the code will still try to call kthread_stop() on the error returned. - Fix race between reading trace_pipe and updating subbuffer size If a user is reading the trace_pipe file at the same time they update the ring buffer sub-buffer size, can cause the trace_pipe read to read stale data. Add trace_access_lock() around updating the ring buffer sub-buffer size. - Fix eventfs_inode on failure path in creation of the events directory In the creation of the "events" directory, if after allocating the eventfs_inode a failure is detected, it calls cleanup_ei() which calls free_ei(). The free_ei() will test if eventfs_inode being freed has no children. It is a bug if it does. But on the failure case of the creation of the "events" directory, the children lists have not yet been initialized and the free will trigger a warning because list_empty() on an uninitialized list returns false. Move the initialization into init_ei() where it makes more sense and makes sure that a created eventfs_inode has its lists initialized upon creation. - Check return value of kthread_run() in ftrace direct sample code The sample code that shows how to use the ftrace direct calls does not test the return of kthread_run() to see if it succeeds. Return a failure if the kthread_run() doesn't succeed. - Clear user events state on fork in case of alloc failure On fork, the child gets a pointer to the parent's user events state. It makes a copy of it then updates the child's pointer to it. But if the allocation fails, the duplication function leaves the child with a pointer to its parent's descriptor. When the child cleans up its data, it will free the parent's descriptor while the parent is still using it. In the duplication function, set the child's user_event_mm to NULL before testing if the allocation succeeded, and when it exits it will not free the parent's descriptor. - Fix retry exhaustion in simple ring buffer reader swap simple_ring_buffer_swap_reader_page() starts with retry set to 8 and post-decrements it only after a failed link replacement. On the final attempt, a successful replacement leaves retry at zero, while a failed replacement leaves it at -1. But the check for success expects the retry value to be non-zero and exits with an error on zero. This is the opposite result. Fix it. - Fail nicely when the remote swap_reader_page() returns an error Currently, if the swap_reader_page() of a remote buffer fails, it triggers a WARN_ON_ONCE() and continues normally. Instead, have it exit with an error and a pr_warn() print instead of a full WARNING. * tag 'trace-v7.3-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: ring-buffer: Stop remote reader update when page swap fails tracing: Fix retry exhaustion in simple ring buffer reader swap tracing/user_events: Clear copied tracing state before fork duplication samples/ftrace: Fix kthread_stop() on ERR_PTR in ftrace-direct-multi-modify samples/ftrace: Fix kthread_stop() on ERR_PTR in ftrace-direct-modify eventfs: Initialize ei->children and ei->list in init_ei() tracing: Fix use-after-free in trace_pipe read on sub-buffer order change tracing: Fix crash passing ERR_PTR to kthread_stop() tracing: Fix use-after-free with same-name named triggers tracing: Fix logged instance name on creation failure

+config JFFS2_FS
+ tristate "Journalling Flash File System v2 (JFFS2) support"
+ select CRC32
+ depends on MTD
+ help
+ JFFS2 is the second generation of the Journalling Flash File System
+ for use on diskless embedded devices. It provides improved wear
+ levelling, compression and support for hard links. You cannot use
+ this on normal block devices, only on 'MTD' devices.
+
+ Further information on the design and implementation of JFFS2 is
+ available at <http://sources.redhat.com/jffs2/>.
+
+config JFFS2_FS_DEBUG
+ int "JFFS2 debugging verbosity (0 = quiet, 2 = noisy)"
+ depends on JFFS2_FS
+ default "0"
+ help
+ This controls the amount of debugging messages produced by the JFFS2
+ code. Set it to zero for use in production systems. For evaluation,
+ testing and debugging, it's advisable to set it to one. This will
+ enable a few assertions and will print debugging messages at the
+ KERN_DEBUG loglevel, where they won't normally be visible. Level 2
+ is unlikely to be useful - it enables extra debugging in certain
+ areas which at one point needed debugging, but when the bugs were
+ located and fixed, the detailed messages were relegated to level 2.
+
+ If reporting bugs, please try to have available a full dump of the
+ messages at debug level 1 while the misbehaviour was occurring.
+
+config JFFS2_FS_WRITEBUFFER
+ bool "JFFS2 write-buffering support"
+ depends on JFFS2_FS
+ default y
+ help
+ This enables the write-buffering support in JFFS2.
+
+ This functionality is required to support JFFS2 on the following
+ types of flash devices:
+ - NAND flash
+ - NOR flash with transparent ECC
+ - DataFlash
+
+config JFFS2_FS_WBUF_VERIFY
+ bool "Verify JFFS2 write-buffer reads"
+ depends on JFFS2_FS_WRITEBUFFER
+ default n
+ help
+ This causes JFFS2 to read back every page written through the
+ write-buffer, and check for errors.
+
+config JFFS2_SUMMARY
+ bool "JFFS2 summary support"
+ depends on JFFS2_FS
+ default n
+ help
+ This feature makes it possible to use summary information
+ for faster filesystem mount.
+
+ The summary information can be inserted into a filesystem image
+ by the utility 'sumtool'.
+
+ If unsure, say 'N'.
+
+config JFFS2_FS_XATTR
+ bool "JFFS2 XATTR support"
+ depends on JFFS2_FS
+ default n
+ help
+ Extended attributes are name:value pairs associated with inodes by

+
+config JFFS2_FS_SECURITY

+ Security labels support alternative access control models
+ implemented by security modules like SELinux. This option
+ enables an extended attribute handler for file security
+ labels in the jffs2 filesystem.
+
+ If you are not using a security module that requires using
+ extended attributes for file security labels, say N.
+
+config JFFS2_COMPRESSION_OPTIONS
+ bool "Advanced compression options for JFFS2"
+ depends on JFFS2_FS
+ default n
+ help
+ Enabling this option allows you to explicitly choose which
+ compression modules, if any, are enabled in JFFS2. Removing
+ compressors can mean you cannot read existing file systems,
+ and enabling experimental compressors can mean that you
+ write a file system which cannot be read by a standard kernel.
+
+ If unsure, you should _definitely_ say 'N'.
+
+config JFFS2_ZLIB
+ bool "JFFS2 ZLIB compression support" if JFFS2_COMPRESSION_OPTIONS
+ select ZLIB_INFLATE
+ select ZLIB_DEFLATE
+ depends on JFFS2_FS

+ help
+ Zlib is designed to be a free, general-purpose, legally unencumbered,
+ lossless data-compression library for use on virtually any computer
+ hardware and operating system. See <http://www.gzip.org/zlib/> for
+ further information.
+
+ Say 'Y' if unsure.

+ select LZO_COMPRESS
+ select LZO_DECOMPRESS
+ depends on JFFS2_FS

+ minilzo-based compression. Generally works better than Zlib.
+
+ This feature was added in July, 2007. Say 'N' if you need
+ compatibility with older bootloaders or kernels.
