tracing: Handle synthetic event array field type checking correctly
[ Upstream commit 10819e25799aae564005b6049a45e9808797b3bb ] Since synthetic event array types are derived from the field name, there may be a semicolon at the end of the type which should be stripped off. If there are more characters following that, normal type string checking will result in an invalid type. Without this patch, you can end up with an invalid field type string that gets displayed in both the synthetic event description and the event format: Before: # echo 'myevent char str[16]; int v' >> synthetic_events # cat synthetic_events myevent char[16]; str; int v name: myevent ID: 1936 format: field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0; field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1; field:char str[16];; offset:8; size:16; signed:1; field:int v; offset:40; size:4; signed:1; print fmt: "str=%s, v=%d", REC->str, REC->v After: # echo 'myevent char str[16]; int v' >> synthetic_events # cat synthetic_events myevent char[16] str; int v # cat events/synthetic/myevent/format name: myevent ID: 1936 format: field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0; field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1; signed:0; field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1; field:char str[16]; offset:8; size:16; signed:1; field:int v; offset:40; size:4; signed:1; print fmt: "str=%s, v=%d", REC->str, REC->v Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/6587663b56c2d45ab9d8c8472a2110713cdec97d.1602598160.git.zanussi@kernel.org [ <rostedt@goodmis.org>: wrote parse_synth_field() snippet. ] Fixes: 4b147936fa50 (tracing: Add support for 'synthetic' events) Reported-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Tested-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Tom Zanussi <zanussi@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
