[PATCH 5.12 102/700] tracing/histograms: Fix parsing of "sym-offset" modifier
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jul 12 2021 - 03:25:03 EST
From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 26c563731056c3ee66f91106c3078a8c36bb7a9e upstream.
With the addition of simple mathematical operations (plus and minus), the
parsing of the "sym-offset" modifier broke, as it took the '-' part of the
"sym-offset" as a minus, and tried to break it up into a mathematical
operation of "field.sym - offset", in which case it failed to parse
(unless the event had a field called "offset").
Both .sym and .sym-offset modifiers should not be entered into
mathematical calculations anyway. If ".sym-offset" is found in the
modifier, then simply make it not an operation that can be calculated on.
