Subject: [PATCH v2 1/6] tracing: probe: Allocate traceprobe_parse_context from heap
From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@...nel.org>
Instead of allocating traceprobe_parse_context on stack, allocate it
dynamically from heap (slab).
This change is likely intended to prevent potential stack overflow
issues, which can be a concern in the kernel environment where stack
space is limited.
Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@...el.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202506240416.nZIhDXoO-lkp@intel.com/
Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@...nel.org>
---
Changes in v2:
- Sort #include alphabetically.
- Just NULL check for freeing traceprobe_parse_context.
- Do not change the semantics of traceprobe_parse_context for uprobe
event. (alloc/free in loop)
