[for-linus][PATCH 04/20] function_graph: Use the saved entrys size when reprinting it

From: Steven Rostedt

Date: Fri Sep 11 2026 - 14:22:01 EST


From: Donggeun Yoo <donggeunyoo.kernel@xxxxxxxxx>

When a graph entry does not fit in the trace_seq, print_graph_entry()
saves it in the iterator's fgraph_data and reprints it on the next read.
The entry has already been consumed from the ring buffer by then, so the
copy is all that is left of it.

The copy is sized with iter->ent_size, which no longer describes the
saved entry but whatever entry the iterator has moved on to. The
argument count is derived from the same field, so a 72 byte entry saved
and then reprinted ahead of a 48 byte return entry loses its arguments.

Record the size next to the failure flag, so that the two are always set
together, and restore it before reprinting.
