From dfb4357da6ddbdf57d583ba64361c9d792b0e0b1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Wed, 8 Feb 2017 11:26:59 -0800 Subject: time: Remove CONFIG_TIMER_STATS Currently CONFIG_TIMER_STATS exposes process information across namespaces: kernel/time/timer_list.c print_timer(): SEQ_printf(m, ", %s/%d", tmp, timer->start_pid); /proc/timer_list: #11: <0000000000000000>, hrtimer_wakeup, S:01, do_nanosleep, cron/2570 Given that the tracer can give the same information, this patch entirely removes CONFIG_TIMER_STATS.

This actually happened with smc. __queue_delayed_work() already does several input sanity checks synchronously. Add NULL @wq check.
