This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled KVM: MIPS: Fix trace event to save PC directly to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt9. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From d48fc17717a72401605b1f7f07ae96926e524c6f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2015 11:46:20 +0000 Subject: KVM: MIPS: Fix trace event to save PC directly commit b3cffac04eca9af46e1e23560a8ee22b1bd36d43 upstream. Currently the guest exit trace event saves the VCPU pointer to the structure, and the guest PC is retrieved by dereferencing it when the event is printed rather than directly from the trace record. This isn't safe as the printing may occur long afterwards, after the PC has changed and potentially after the VCPU has been freed. Usually this results in the same (wrong) PC being printed for multiple trace events. It also isn't portable as userland has no way to access the VCPU data structure when interpreting the trace record itself. Lets save the actual PC in the structure so that the correct value is accessible later.
