Since reading the set_graph_functions uses seq functions, which sets the file->private_data pointer to a seq_file descriptor. On writes the ftrace_graph_data descriptor is set to file->private_data. But if the file is opened for RDWR, the ftrace_graph_write() will incorrectly use the file->private_data descriptor instead of ((struct seq_file *)file->private_data)->private pointer, and this can crash the kernel.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
