commit94eedf3dde("tracing: Fix race where eprobes can be called before the event") fixed an issue where if an event is soft disabled, and the trigger is being added, there's a small window where the event sees that there's a trigger but does not see that it requires reading the event yet, and then calls the trigger with the record == NULL. This could be solved with adding memory barriers in the hot path, or to make sure that all the triggers requiring a record check for NULL. The latter was chosen. Commit94eedf3ddeset the eprobe trigger handle to check for NULL, but the same needs to be done with histograms.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
