      tracing: Have branch tracer use recursive field of task struct · 6224beb1
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      Fengguang Wu's tests triggered a bug in the branch tracer's start up
      test when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT set. This was because that config
      adds some debug logic in the per cpu field, which calls back into
      the branch tracer.
      
      The branch tracer has its own recursive checks, but uses a per cpu
      variable to implement it. If retrieving the per cpu variable calls
      back into the branch tracer, you can see how things will break.
      
      Instead of using a per cpu variable, use the trace_recursion field
      of the current task struct. Simply set a bit when entering the
      branch tracing and clear it when leaving. If the bit is set on
      entry, just don't do the tracing.
      
      There's also the case with lockdep, as the local_irq_save() called
      before the recursion can also trigger code that can call back into
      the function. Changing that to a raw_local_irq_save() will protect
      that as well.
      
      This prevents the recursion and the inevitable crash that follows.
