AKASHI Takahiro Sept. 24, 2013, 9 a.m. UTC
get_user() is defined as a function macro in arm64, and trace_get_user()
calls it as followed:
     get_user(ch, ptr++);
Since the second parameter occurs twice in the definition, 'ptr++' is
unexpectedly evaluated twice and trace_get_user() will generate a bogus
string from user-provided one. As a result, some ftrace sysfs operations,
like "echo FUNCNAME > set_ftrace_filter," hit this case and eventually fail.
This patch fixes the issue both in get_user() and put_user().

I think this should be:

	__typeof__(*(ptr)) __user *optr = (ptr);

Otherwise the patch looks fine. I can fix the above.

Thanks.

BTW, please use git send-email or other email client, the diff above is
heavily corrupted (too many spaces at the beginning of the line, removed
empty lines; I managed to fix it up this time but only because it was a
small patch).

Catalin,

Thank you for your comments, and let me send a revised patch again
because my original message didn't reach MLs due to my screw-up.

BTW, I will submit a patch of ftrace support on arm64 once gcc supports
gprof (-pg) options.

You can send it if you want but I already merged it in my tree (should
appear in -next this week as well).
