[PATCH 0/2] [GIT PULL][v3.1] kprobes: can cause perf to crash the system

October 10th, 2011 - 03:30 pm ET by Steven Rostedt | Report spam


Ingo,

I tested and verified that the commends that Masami has shown will
crash the system. These patches do fix the problem.

I also verified that the same commands will crash 2.6.39 and have included
stable in the Cc of the commits.

Masami Hiramatsu (2):
ftrace/kprobes: Fix not to delete probes if in use
perf probe: Fix to show correct error string
