From 0de4b34d466bae571b50f41c7296b85248205e35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masami Hiramatsu Date: Mon, 14 Feb 2011 14:48:07 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] tracing/kprobe: Fix NULL pointer deref check Add NULL check for avoiding NULL pointer deref. This bug has been introduced by: 1ff511e35ed8: tracing/kprobes: Add bitfield type which causes a null pointer dereference bug when kprobe-tracer parses an argument without type.
