[PATCH] tracing: Correct the length check which causes memory corruption
From: Liangyan
Date: Mon Jun 07 2021 - 08:57:46 EST
We've suffered from severe kernel crashes due to memory corruption on
our production environment, like,

James Wang has reproduced it stably on the latest 4.19 LTS.
After some debugging, we finally proved that it's due to ftrace
buffer out-of-bound access using a debug tool as follows:

commit b220c049d519 ("tracing: Check length before giving out
the filter buffer") adds length check to protect trace data
overflow introduced in 0fc1b09ff1ff, seems that this fix can't prevent
overflow entirely, the length check should also take the sizeof
entry->array[0] into account, since this array[0] is filled the
length of trace data and occupy addtional space and risk overflow.
