From: Steven Rostedt The stack tracer stores eight entries in the ring buffer when an event traces the stack. The output outputs all eight entries regardless of how many entries were recorded. This patch breaks out of the loop when a null entry is discovered. [ Impact: only print the stack that is recorded ] Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt --- kernel/trace/trace_output.c | 2 ++ 1 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/trace/trace_output.c b/kernel/trace/trace_output.c index 8bd9a2c..489c0e8 100644 --- a/kernel/trace/trace_output.c +++ b/kernel/trace/trace_output.c @@ -898,6 +898,8 @@ static enum print_line_t trace_stack_print(struct trace_iterator *iter, trace_assign_type(field, iter->ent); for (i = 0; i < FTRACE_STACK_ENTRIES; i++) { + if (!field->caller[i]) + break; if (i) { if (!trace_seq_puts(s, " <= ")) goto partial; -- 1.6.2.4 -- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
