[PATCH 0/5] tracing: Fix several deadlock/race issues in timerlat and hwlat tracer

From: Wei Li <hidden>
Date: 2024-09-24 09:53:44

These issues are found in concurrent CPU-hotplug and tracer-toggling
testing, the test cases are as follows:

Background: *test_hotplug.sh*
#!/bin/sh

while true
do
	echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
done
Test 1: *test_timerlat.sh*
#!/bin/sh

while true
do
	echo timerlat > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
	echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
done
Test 2: *test_hwlat.sh*
#!/bin/sh

echo per-cpu > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/hwlat_detector/mode
while true
do
	echo hwlat > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
	echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
done
