From: Linus Torvalds Date: Sat, 17 Jul 2021 19:36:51 +0000 (-0700) Subject: Merge tag 'trace-v5.14-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt... X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3fdacf402bb2221c77940f68ef56a0214c098ee0;p=linux.git Merge tag 'trace-v5.14-5' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt: "Fix the histogram logic from possibly crashing the kernel Working on the histogram code, I found that if you dereference a char pointer in a trace event that happens to point to user space, it can crash the kernel, as it does no checks of that pointer. I have code coming that will do this better, so just remove this ability to treat character pointers in trace events as stings in the histogram" * tag 'trace-v5.14-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Do not reference char * as a string in histograms --- 3fdacf402bb2221c77940f68ef56a0214c098ee0
