From ac91d85456372a90af5b85eb6620fd2efb1e431b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lai Jiangshan Date: Tue, 2 Mar 2010 17:54:50 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Fix warning in s_next of trace file ops This warning in s_next() can be triggered by lseek(): [] ? s_next+0x77/0x80 [] warn_slowpath_common+0x81/0xa0 [] ? s_next+0x77/0x80 [] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [] s_next+0x77/0x80 [] traverse+0x117/0x200 [] seq_lseek+0xa3/0x120 [] ? seq_lseek+0x0/0x120 [] vfs_llseek+0x41/0x50 [] sys_llseek+0x66/0xa0 [] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x26 The iterator "leftover" variable is zeroed in the opening of the trace file. But lseek can call s_start() which will call s_next() without reseting the "leftover" variable back to zero, which might trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE(iter->leftover) that is in s_next().
