Linus Torvalds 6803f37e09 Oleg is working on fixing a very tight race between opening a event file ... and deleting that event at the same time (both must be done as root). I also found a bug while testing Oleg's patches which has to do with a race with kprobes using the function tracer. There's also a deadlock fix that was introduced with the previous fixes. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAABAgAGBQJR8nMiAAoJEOdOSU1xswtMXMMH/jNuG1vDcTjo7WXu3kYHJNWc u1Z3YPXunFozz4DofzXPCuSkSgRqSR4cVeGOAv3oEfwQv07jJdTAor8/FuVTNXW9 yiGMUvth0nLVZQEmsh3VvVztqFy8FxhpnQHhIa6pillPUdROKgE/A7/q4wT37lxT qniM1QJTK9fIf2t6suMwSsBD7fepiDkdHwVbs5NvN7qj62/QSPN+pHLAOBl90AGp r5eUSj8cDHxmzlV+GAJxeqI7KH+P2PGts9USI+s5EX8mODci620jz1HkKab6XRpz ggYdNzJ21z1fO9vfnpGCF0d03sKdnbJoIQjkyD4AJHlojmLe3s6l/nxS6jg3wH8= =VrR4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-fixes-3.11-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "Oleg is working on fixing a very tight race between opening a event file and deleting that event at the same time (both must be done as root).
