The mapper may be NULL when called from register_ftrace_function_probe() with probe->data == NULL. This issue can be reproduced as follow (it may be covered by compiler optimization sometime): / # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter #### all functions enabled #### / # echo foo_bar:dump > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter [ 206.949100] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000 [ 206.952402] Mem abort info: [ 206.952819] ESR = 0x96000006 [ 206.955326] Exception class = DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits [ 206.955844] SET = 0, FnV = 0 [ 206.956272] EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 [ 206.956652] Data abort info: [ 206.957320] ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000006 [ 206.959271] CM = 0, WnR = 0 [ 206.959938] user pgtable: 4k pages, 48-bit VAs, pgdp=0000000419f3a000 [ 206.960483] [0000000000000000] pgd=0000000411a87003, pud=0000000411a83003, pmd=0000000000000000 [ 206.964953] Internal error: Oops: 96000006 [#1] SMP [ 206.971122] Dumping ftrace buffer: [ 206.973677] (ftrace buffer empty) [ 206.975258] Modules linked in: [ 206.976631] Process sh (pid: 281, stack limit = 0x(____ptrval____)) [ 206.978449] CPU: 10 PID: 281 Comm: sh Not tainted 5.2.0-rc1+ #17 [ 206.978955] Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT) [ 206.979883] pstate: 60000005 (nZCv daif -PAN -UAO) [ 206.980499] pc : free_ftrace_func_mapper+0x2c/0x118 [ 206.980874] lr : ftrace_count_free+0x68/0x80 [ 206.982539] sp : ffff0000182f3ab0 [ 206.983102] x29: ffff0000182f3ab0 x28: ffff8003d0ec1700 [ 206.983632] x27: ffff000013054b40 x26: 0000000000000001 [ 206.984000] x25: ffff00001385f000 x24: 0000000000000000 [ 206.984394] x23: ffff000013453000 x22: ffff000013054000 [ 206.984775] x21: 0000000000000000 x20: ffff00001385fe28 [ 206.986575] x19: ffff000013872c30 x18: 0000000000000000 [ 206.987111] x17: 0000000000000000 x16: 0000000000000000 [ 206.987491] x15: ffffffffffffffb0 x14: 0000000000000000 [ 206.987850] x13: 000000000017430e x12: 0000000000000580 [ 206.988251] x11: 0000000000000000 x10: cccccccccccccccc [ 206.988740] x9 : 0000000000000000 x8 : ffff000013917550 [ 206.990198] x7 : ffff000012fac2e8 x6 : ffff000012fac000 [ 206.991008] x5 : ffff0000103da588 x4 : 0000000000000001 [ 206.991395] x3 : 0000000000000001 x2 : ffff000013872a28 [ 206.991771] x1 : 0000000000000000 x0 : 0000000000000000 [ 206.992557] Call trace: [ 206.993101] free_ftrace_func_mapper+0x2c/0x118 [ 206.994827] ftrace_count_free+0x68/0x80 [ 206.995238] release_probe+0xfc/0x1d0 [ 206.995555] register_ftrace_function_probe+0x4a8/0x868 [ 206.995923] ftrace_trace_probe_callback.isra.4+0xb8/0x180 [ 206.996330] ftrace_dump_callback+0x50/0x70 [ 206.996663] ftrace_regex_write.isra.29+0x290/0x3a8 [ 206.997157] ftrace_filter_write+0x44/0x60 [ 206.998971] __vfs_write+0x64/0xf0 [ 206.999285] vfs_write+0x14c/0x2f0 [ 206.999591] ksys_write+0xbc/0x1b0 [ 206.999888] __arm64_sys_write+0x3c/0x58 [ 207.000246] el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0x408/0x5f0 [ 207.000607] el0_svc_handler+0x144/0x1c8 [ 207.000916] el0_svc+0x8/0xc [ 207.003699] Code: aa0003f8 a9025bf5 aa0103f5 f946ea80 (f9400303) [ 207.008388] ---[ end trace 7b6d11b5f542bdf1 ]--- [ 207.010126] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception [ 207.011322] SMP: stopping secondary CPUs [ 207.013956] Dumping ftrace buffer: [ 207.014595] (ftrace buffer empty) [ 207.015632] Kernel Offset: disabled [ 207.017187] CPU features: 0x002,20006008 [ 207.017985] Memory Limit: none [ 207.019825] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception ]--- Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190606031754.10798-1-liwei391@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Wei Li <liwei391@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
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 Restructured Text 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.
