PATCH 1/3 tracing: Use this_cpu_ptr per-cpu helper

From: Shan Wei <[email protected]>

typeof(&buffer) is a pointer to array of 1024 char, or char (*)[1024].
But, typeof(&buffer[0]) is a pointer to char which match the return type of get_trace_buf(). As well-known, the value of &buffer is equal to &buffer[0].
so return this_cpu_ptr(&percpu_buffer->buffer[0]) can avoid type cast.

PATCH 2/3 tracing: Verify target file before registering a uprobe event

In reply to Steven Rostedt

From: Jovi Zhang <[email protected]>

Without this patch, we can register a uprobe event for a directory. Enabling such a uprobe event would anyway fail.

Example:

$ echo 'p /bin:0x4245c0' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events

However dirctories cannot be valid targets for uprobe. Hence verify if the target is a regular file during the probe registration.

PATCH 3/3 tracing/syscalls: Make local functions static

In reply to Steven Rostedt

From: Fengguang Wu <[email protected]>

Some functions in the syscall tracing is used only locally to the file, but they are labeled global. Convert them to static functions.
