tracing: Append prompt in /debug/tracing/README file

2009-05-15T17:43:22Z

append prompt in /debug/tracing/README file. This is trivial issue. Fix typo Mini Howto file(README) for ftrace. [ Impact: cleanup ] Signed-off-by: GeunSik Lim Acked-by: Steven Rostedt Cc: williams LKML-Reference: <1242289418.31161.45.camel@centos51> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

tracing: fix ref count in splice pages

2009-04-29T06:02:44Z

The pages allocated for the splice binary buffer did not initialize the ref count correctly. This caused pages not to be freed and causes a drastic memory leak. Thanks to logdev I was able to trace the tracer to find where the leak was. [ Impact: stop memory leak when using splice ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

tracing/filters: return proper error code when writing filter file

tracing/filters: fix NULL pointer dereference

2009-04-12T09:59:28Z

Try this, and you'll see NULL pointer dereference bug: # echo -n 'parent_comm ==' > sched/sched_process_fork/filter Because we passed NULL ptr to simple_strtoull().

tracing/filters: NIL-terminate user input filter

2009-04-12T09:59:27Z

Make sure messages from user space are NIL-terminated strings, otherwise we could dump random memory while reading filter file.
