tracepoint: Fix tracepoint array element size mismatch
commit 46e0c9be206f ("kernel: tracepoints: add support for relative references") changes the layout of the __tracepoint_ptrs section on architectures supporting relative references. However, it does so without turning struct tracepoint * const into const int elsewhere in the tracepoint code, which has the following side-effect: Setting mod->num_tracepoints is done in by module.c: mod->tracepoints_ptrs = section_objs(info, "__tracepoints_ptrs", sizeof(*mod->tracepoints_ptrs), &mod->num_tracepoints); Basically, since sizeof(*mod->tracepoints_ptrs) is a pointer size (rather than sizeof(int)), num_tracepoints is erroneously set to half the size it should be on 64-bit arch. So a module with an odd number of tracepoints misses the last tracepoint due to effect of integer division. So in the module going notifier: for_each_tracepoint_range(mod->tracepoints_ptrs, mod->tracepoints_ptrs + mod->num_tracepoints, tp_module_going_check_quiescent, NULL); the expression (mod->tracepoints_ptrs + mod->num_tracepoints) actually evaluates to something within the bounds of the array, but miss the last tracepoint if the number of tracepoints is odd on 64-bit arch. Fix this by introducing a new typedef: tracepoint_ptr_t, which is either "const int" on architectures that have PREL32 relocations, or "struct tracepoint * const" on architectures that does not have this feature. Also provide a new tracepoint_ptr_defer() static inline to encapsulate deferencing this type rather than duplicate code and ugly idefs within the for_each_tracepoint_range() implementation. This issue appears in 4.19-rc kernels, and should ideally be fixed before the end of the rc cycle.
