tracing: Fix the race between registering 'snapshot' event trigger and triggering 'snapshot' operation Traced event can trigger 'snapshot' operation(i.e. calls snapshot_trigger() or snapshot_count_trigger()) when register_snapshot_trigger() has completed registration but doesn't allocate buffer for 'snapshot' event trigger. In the rare case, 'snapshot' operation always detects the lack of allocated buffer so make register_snapshot_trigger() allocate buffer first. trigger-snapshot.tc in kselftest reproduces the issue on slow vm: ----------------------------------------------------------- cat trace ... ftracetest-3028 [002] .... 236.784290: sched_process_fork: comm=ftracetest pid=3028 child_comm=ftracetest child_pid=3036 <...>-2875 [003] .... 240.460335: tracing_snapshot_instance_cond: *** SNAPSHOT NOT ALLOCATED *** <...>-2875 [003] .... 240.460338: tracing_snapshot_instance_cond: *** stopping trace here! *** ----------------------------------------------------------- Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200414015145.66236-1-yangx.jy@cn.fujitsu.com Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 93e31ffb ("tracing: Add 'snapshot' event trigger command") Signed-off-by: Xiao Yang <yangx.jy@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
