Masami added a wrapper to be able to unhash trace event pointers as they are only read by root anyway, and they can also be extracted by the raw trace data buffers. But this wrapper utilized the iterator to have a temporary buffer to manipulate the text with. tp_printk is a kernel command line option that will send the trace output of a trace event to the console on boot up (useful when the system crashes before finishing the boot). But the code used the same wrapper that Masami added, and its iterator did not have a buffer, and this caused the system to crash. Have the wrapper just print the trace event normally if the iterator has no temporary buffer. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCYH8exRQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qlvdAP436vts0GOM8UM0y9IAPNrSG5OSvjNe v5C5UOpnIxjlrgEArBtLLDaByLSBDQj+Vx0LmDW5uMOps49mo3A35TcIEAM= =GfL1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v5.12-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt: "Fix tp_printk command line and trace events Masami added a wrapper to be able to unhash trace event pointers as they are only read by root anyway, and they can also be extracted by the raw trace data buffers.

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.
