Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> tracing/timerlat: Move hrtimer_init to timerlat_fd open()<br /> <br /> Currently, the timerlat&amp;#39;s hrtimer is initialized at the first read of<br /> timerlat_fd, and destroyed at close(). It works, but it causes an error<br /> if the user program open() and close() the file without reading.<br /> <br /> Here&amp;#39;s an example:<br /> <br /> # echo NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/osnoise/options<br /> # echo timerlat &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer<br /> <br /> # cat
