- Fix buffer overflow in osnoise_cpu_write() The allocated buffer to read user space did not add a nul terminating byte after copying from user the string. It then reads the string, and if user space did not add a nul byte, the read will continue beyond the string. Add a nul terminating byte after reading the string. - Fix missing check for lockdown on tracing There's a path from kprobe events or uprobe events that can update the tracing system even if lockdown on tracing is activate. Add a check in the dynamic event path. - Add a recursion check for the function graph return path Now that fprobes can hook to the function graph tracer and call different code between the entry and the exit, the exit code may now call functions that are not called in entry. This means that the exit handler can possibly trigger recursion that is not caught and cause the system to crash. Add the same recursion checks in the function exit handler as exists in the entry handler path. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYKADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCaNkbyxQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qh6dAQDTFqLRb01RzaZuF/xG9A7UqNz9abq5 fQVwu1RG9xXnnAD/X9PfKfnqLhK/M2EJZT17PJ+nUlFqFoVL6lLJyrDLSw4= =4j5J -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v6.17-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: - Fix buffer overflow in osnoise_cpu_write() The allocated buffer to read user space did not add a nul terminating byte after copying from user the string.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
