[PATCH 1/2] ftrace: Fix regression with module command in stack_trace_filter

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Fri Jun 30 2017 - 18:06:28 EST


From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

When doing the following command:

# echo ":mod:kvm_intel" > /sys/kernel/tracing/stack_trace_filter

it triggered a crash.

This happened with the clean up of probes. It required all callers to the
regex function (doing ftrace filtering) to have ops->private be a pointer to
a trace_array. But for the stack tracer, that is not the case.

Allow for the ops->private to be NULL, and change the function command
callbacks to handle the trace_array pointer being NULL as well.

Fixes: d2afd57a4b96 ("tracing/ftrace: Allow instances to have their own function probes")
