From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rost...@goodmis.org> In function_graph_enter() there's a loop that looks at fgraph_array[] elements which are fgraph_ops. It first tests if it is a fgraph_stub op, and if so skips it, as that's just there as a place holder. Then it checks the fgraph_ops filters to see if the ops wants to trace the current function.
But if the compiler reloads the fgraph_array[] after the check against fgraph_stub, it could race with the fgraph_array[] being updated with the fgraph_stub. That would cause the stub to be processed. But the stub has a null "func_hash" field which will cause a NULL pointer dereference. Add a READ_ONCE() so that the gops that is compared against the fgraph_stub is also the gops that is processed later.
