perf session: Do not fail on processing out of order event

2015-01-16T14:59:56+00:00

commit f61ff6c06dc8f32c7036013ad802c899ec590607 upstream. Linus reported perf report command being interrupted due to processing of 'out of order' event, with following error: Timestamp below last timeslice flush 0x5733a8 [0x28]: failed to process type: 3 I could reproduce the issue and in my case it was caused by one CPU (mmap) being behind during record and userspace mmap reader seeing the data after other CPUs data were already stored. This is expected under some circumstances because we need to limit the number of events that we queue for reordering when we receive a PERF_RECORD_FINISHED_ROUND or when we force flush due to memory pressure.

ktest: Fix make_min_config to handle new assign_configs call

2015-01-16T14:59:46+00:00

commit 9972fc0b859e7aaeb6d2d33bdb591959d9a436c0 upstream. Commit 6071c22e1755 "ktest: Rewrite the config-bisect to actually work" fixed the config-bisect to work nicely but in doing so it broke make_min_config by changing the way assign_configs works. The assign_configs function now adds the config to the hash even if it is disabled, but changes the hash value to be that of the line "# CONFIG_FOO is not set". Unfortunately, the make_min_config test only checks to see if the config is removed. It now needs to check if the config is in the hash and not set to be disabled.

userns: Unbreak the unprivileged remount tests

2015-01-08T18:30:27+00:00

commit db86da7cb76f797a1a8b445166a15cb922c6ff85 upstream. A security fix in caused the way the unprivileged remount tests were using user namespaces to break. Tweak the way user namespaces are being used so the test works again. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mnt: Update unprivileged remount test

2015-01-08T18:30:24+00:00

commit 4a44a19b470a886997d6647a77bb3e38dcbfa8c5 upstream. - MNT_NODEV should be irrelevant except when reading back mount flags, no longer specify MNT_NODEV on remount. - Test MNT_NODEV on devpts where it is meaningful even for unprivileged mounts. - Add a test to verify that remount of a prexisting mount with the same flags is allowed and does not change those flags. - Cleanup up the definitions of MS_REC, MS_RELATIME, MS_STRICTATIME that are used when the code is built in an environment without them. - Correct the test error messages when tests fail. There were not 5 tests that tested MS_RELATIME. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

selftests/net: psock_fanout seg faults in sock_fanout_read_ring()

2014-11-12T02:43:34+00:00

The while loop in sock_fanout_read_ring() checks mmap region bounds after access, causing it to segfault. Fix it to check count before accessing header->tp_status. This problem can be reproduced consistently when the test in run as follows: make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=net run_tests or make run_tests from tools/testing/selftests or make run_test from tools/testing/selftests/net Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan Signed-off-by: David S.

Pull ftracetest fix from Steven Rostedt: "Running the ftracetests on a machine that had the debugfs file system mounted in two locations caused the ftracetests to fail. This is because the ftracetests script does a grep of the /proc/mounts file to find where the debugfs file system is mounted. If it is mounted twice, then the grep returns two lines instead of just one. This causes the ftracetests to get confused and fail. Use "head -1" to only return the first mount point for debugfs" * tag 'ftracetest-3.18-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftracetest: Take the first debugfs mount found

ftracetest: Take the first debugfs mount found

2014-11-03T18:42:49+00:00

Running ftracetests on a box that mounted debugfs in two locations made the ftracetests fail. This is because the tests uses a grep of debugfs from the /proc/mounts file to find the debugfs mount point, and then appends "/tracing" to that string to get the tracing directory. If the debugfs directory is mounted twice, then that grep will return two answers and appending "/tracing" to a string with two lines will not work. Use "head -1" to only take the first mount point found. Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

perf probe: Trivial typo fix for --demangle

2014-10-29T12:30:18+00:00

Replace "Disable" with "Enable", since --demangle option enables symbol demangling, not disable it. perf probe has --demangle and --no-demangle options, but the command-line help (--help) shows only --demangle option. So it should explain about --demangle.
