[ Upstream commit 6c871260965255a1c142fb77ccee58b172d1690b ] The TP_STRUCT__entry that gets assigned the region name, or an empty string if no region is present, is erroneously initialized to the cxl_region pointer. It needs to be properly initialized otherwise it's length is wrong and garbage chars can appear in the kernel trace output: /sys/kernel/tracing/trace The bad initialization was due in part to a naming conflict with the parameter: struct cxl_region *region. The field 'region' is already exposed externally as the region name, so changing that to something logical, like 'region_name' is not an option. Instead rename the internal only struct cxl_region to the commonly used 'cxlr'. Impact is that tooling depending on that trace data can miss picking up a valid event when searching by region name. The TP_printk() output, if enabled, does emit the correct region names in the dmesg log. This was found during testing of the cxl-list option to report media-errors for a region.

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.
