[ Upstream commit 51270d573a8d9dd5afdc7934de97d66c0e14b5fd ]
I'm updating __assign_str() and will be removing the second parameter. To
make sure that it does not break anything, I make sure that it matches the
__string() field, as that is where the string is actually going to be
saved in. To make sure there's nothing that breaks, I added a WARN_ON() to
make sure that what was used in __string() is the same that is used in
__assign_str().
In doing this change, an error was triggered as __assign_str() now expects
the string passed in to be a char * value. I instead had the following
warning:
include/trace/events/qdisc.h: In function ‘trace_event_raw_event_qdisc_reset’:
include/trace/events/qdisc.h:91:35: error: passing argument 1 of 'strcmp' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
91 | __assign_str(dev, qdisc_dev(q));
That's because the qdisc_enqueue() and qdisc_reset() pass in qdisc_dev(q)
to __assign_str() and to __string(). But that function returns a pointer
to struct net_device and not a string.
It appears that these events are just saving the pointer as a string and
then reading it as a string as well.
Use qdisc_dev(q)->name to save the device instead.

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.
