[for-next][PATCH 7/7] tracing: Use pr_err() instead of WARN() for memory failures
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Sun Jan 26 2020 - 14:20:35 EST
From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
As warnings can trigger panics, especially when "panic_on_warn" is set,
memory failure warnings can cause panics and fail fuzz testers that are
stressing memory.
Create a MEM_FAIL() macro to use instead of WARN() in the tracing code
(perhaps this should be a kernel wide macro?), and use that for memory
failure issues. This should stop failing fuzz tests due to warnings.
