      tracing: Fix sample output of dynamic arrays · d6726c81
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
      He Kuang noticed that the trace event samples for arrays was broken:
      
      "The output result of trace_foo_bar event in traceevent samples is
       wrong. This problem can be reproduced as following:
      
        (Build kernel with SAMPLE_TRACE_EVENTS=m)
      
        $ insmod trace-events-sample.ko
      
        $ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sample-trace/foo_bar/enable
      
        $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace
      
        event-sample-980 [000] ....  43.649559: foo_bar: foo hello 21 0x15
        BIT1|BIT3|0x10 {0x1,0x6f6f6e53,0xff007970,0xffffffff} Snoopy
                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                       The array length is not right, should be {0x1}.
        (ffffffff,ffffffff)
      
        event-sample-980 [000] ....  44.653827: foo_bar: foo hello 22 0x16
        BIT2|BIT3|0x10
        {0x1,0x2,0x646e6147,0x666c61,0xffffffff,0xffffffff,0x750aeffe,0x7}
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                       The array length is not right, should be {0x1,0x2}.
        Gandalf (ffffffff,ffffffff)"
      
      This was caused by an update to have __print_array()'s second parameter
      be the count of items in the array and not the size of the array.
      
      As there is already users of __print_array(), it can not change. But
      the sample code can and we can also improve on the documentation about
      __print_array() and __get_dynamic_array_len().

      tracing: Have branch tracer use recursive field of task struct · 6224beb1
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
      Fengguang Wu's tests triggered a bug in the branch tracer's start up
      test when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT set. This was because that config
      adds some debug logic in the per cpu field, which calls back into
      the branch tracer.
      
      The branch tracer has its own recursive checks, but uses a per cpu
      variable to implement it. If retrieving the per cpu variable calls
      back into the branch tracer, you can see how things will break.
      
      Instead of using a per cpu variable, use the trace_recursion field
      of the current task struct. Simply set a bit when entering the
      branch tracing and clear it when leaving. If the bit is set on
      entry, just don't do the tracing.
      
      There's also the case with lockdep, as the local_irq_save() called
      before the recursion can also trigger code that can call back into
      the function. Changing that to a raw_local_irq_save() will protect
      that as well.
      
      This prevents the recursion and the inevitable crash that follows.

      bluetooth: fix list handling · 9b284cbd
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Commit 835a6a2f ("Bluetooth: Stop sabotaging list poisoning")
      thought that the code was sabotaging the list poisoning when NULL'ing
      out the list pointers and removed it.
      
      But what was going on was that the bluetooth code was using NULL
      pointers for the list as a way to mark it empty, and that commit just
      broke it (and replaced the test with NULL with a "list_empty()" test on
      a uninitialized list instead, breaking things even further).
      
      So fix it all up to use the regular and real list_empty() handling
      (which does not use NULL, but a pointer to itself), also making sure to
      initialize the list properly (the previous NULL case was initialized
      implicitly by the session being allocated with kzalloc())
      
      This is a combination of patches by Marcel Holtmann and Tedd Ho-Jeong
      An.
      
      [ I would normally expect to get this through the bt tree, but I'm going
        to release -rc1, so I'm just committing this directly   - Linus ]
