From 64ae572bc7d0060429e40e1c8d803ce5eb31a0d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathieu Desnoyers Date: Sat, 17 Aug 2019 10:12:08 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Fix sched switch start/stop refcount racy updates Reading the sched_cmdline_ref and sched_tgid_ref initial state within tracing_start_sched_switch without holding the sched_register_mutex is racy against concurrent updates, which can lead to tracepoint probes being registered more than once (and thus trigger warnings within tracepoint.c).
