- Clean up the __rb_map_vma() logic The logic of __rb_map_vma() has a error check with WARN_ON() that makes sure that the index does not go past the end of the array of buffers. The test in the loop pretty much guarantees that it will never happen, but since the relation of the variables used is a little complex, the WARN_ON() check was added. It was noticed that the array was dereferenced before this check and if the logic does break and for some reason the logic goes past the array, there will be an out of bounds access here. Move the access to after the WARN_ON(). - Consolidate how the ring buffer is determined to be empty Currently there's two ways that are used to determine if the ring buffer is empty. One relies on the status of the commit and reader pages and what was read, and the other is on what was written vs what was read. By using the number of entries (written) method, it can be used for reading events that are out of the kernel's control (what pKVM will use). Move to this method to make it easier to implement a pKVM ring buffer that the kernel can read. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIoEABYIADIWIQRRSw7ePDh/lE+zeZMp5XQQmuv6qgUCZ42XuRQccm9zdGVkdEBn b29kbWlzLm9yZwAKCRAp5XQQmuv6qn3GAQCOQ94vr88FSXb/azC9281iDGYC/KbJ 7J4dGv2rXHpoVAEAtXRXSXpG0mTIJ6TtgVKgMrIFAuT/AVo4EIUr2q/CsgA= =2G7c -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-ringbuffer-v6.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull trace ring-buffer updates from Steven Rostedt: - Clean up the __rb_map_vma() logic The logic of __rb_map_vma() has a error check with WARN_ON() that makes sure that the index does not go past the end of the array of buffers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
