The Linux kernel printf() has some extended use cases that dereference the pointer. This is dangerouse for tracing because the pointer that is dereferenced can change or even be unmapped. It also causes issues when the trace data is extracted, because user space does not have access to the contents of the pointer even if it still exists. To handle this, the kernel was updated to process these dereferenced pointers at the time they are recorded, and not post processed. Now they exist in the tracing buffer, and no dereference is needed at the time of reading the trace. The event parsing library needs to handle this new case.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
