Hi Alan and Zong,
I initially suspected ftrace is broken between v5.6 & v5.7 as Kolin pointed out.
I couldn't find any reason how the HSM patch is related. Zong's ftrace
patching code was also merged in that release.
However, I was able to reproduce the issue in the older kernel(v5.4)
as well on both Qemu & Unleashed hardware.
Here are the steps:
mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo function_graph > current_tracer
echo function > current_tracer
It works for the first time with function_graph but writing any other
tracer crashes immediately.
Can you take a look to check if the bug is in ftrace infrastructure code ?
