[ Upstream commit 608c6ed3337850c767ab0dd6c583477922233e29 ]
When input some constructed invalid 'trigger' command, command info
in 'error_log' are lost [1].
The root cause is that there is a path that event_hist_trigger_parse()
is recursely called once and 'last_cmd' which save origin command is
cleared, then later calling of hist_err() will no longer record origin
command info:
event_hist_trigger_parse() {
last_cmd_set() // <1> 'last_cmd' save origin command here at first
create_actions() {
onmatch_create() {
action_create() {
trace_action_create() {
trace_action_create_field_var() {
create_field_var_hist() {
event_hist_trigger_parse() { // <2> recursely called once
hist_err_clear() // <3> 'last_cmd' is cleared here
}
hist_err() // <4> No longer find origin command!!!
Since 'glob' is empty string while running into the recurse call, we
can trickly check it and bypass the call of hist_err_clear() to solve it.

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.
