Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Remove useless assignment of soft_mode variable
The function __ftrace_event_enable_disable() sets "soft_mode" in one of the branch paths but doesn't use it after that. Remove the setting of that variable.
- Add a cond_resched() in ring_buffer_resize()
The resize function that allocates all the pages for the ring buffer was causing a soft lockup on PREEMPT_NONE configs when allocating large buffers on machines with many CPUs. Hopefully this is the last cond_resched() needed to be added as PREEMPT_LAZY becomes the norm in the future.
- Make ftrace_graph_ent depth field signed
The "depth" field of struct ftrace_graph_ent was converted from "int" to "unsigned long" for alignment reasons to work with being embedded in other structures. The conversion from a signed to unsigned caused integrity checks to always pass as they were comparing "depth" to less than zero. Make the field signed long.
- Add recursion protection to stack trace events
A infinite recursion was triggered by a stack trace event calling RCU which internally called rcu_read_unlock_special(), which triggered an event that was also doing stacktraces which cause it to trigger the same RCU lock that called rcu_read_unlock_special() again.
Update the trace_test_and_set_recursion() to add a set of context checks for events to use, and have the stack trace event use that for recursion protection.
- Make the variable ftrace_dump_on_oops static
The cleanup of sysctl that moved all the updates to the files that use them moved the reference of ftrace_dump_on_oops to where it is used. It is no longer used outside of the trace.c file. Make it static.
