Luigi Semenzato authored
This fixes a long-standing bug caused by the lack of separate COMM and EXEC record types, which makes "perf report" lose track of symbols when a process renames itself. With this fix (suggested by Stephane Eranian), a COMM (rename) no longer flushes the maps, which is the correct behavior. An EXEC also no longer flushes the maps, but this doesn't matter because as new mappings are created (for the executable and the libraries) the old mappings are automatically removed. This is not by accident: the functionality is necessary because DLLs can be explicitly loaded at any time with dlopen(), possibly on top of existing text, so "perf report" handles correctly the clobbering of new mappings on top of old ones. An alternative patch (which I proposed earlier) would be to introduce a separate PERF_RECORD_EXEC type, but it is a much larger change (about 300 lines) and is not necessary.

It seems that commit cc584821 ("perf help: Remove use of die and handle errors") caused the problem - it changed the initial value of 'help_format' from HELP_FORMAT_MAN to HELP_FORMAT_NONE. This broke the --help option for all builtins, that would produce no output, while 'man perf-top' would work it MANPATH is properly setup.

Sometimes we're segfaulting because we were expecting that the perf_sample.raw_data field was set as requested, but in some cases that needs further investigation, that field can be NULL, leading to segfaults.

This either results in guest memory corruption and or the hardware faulting and 'crashing' the virtual machine. Therefore we have to disable PEBS on VT-x enter and re-enable on VT-x exit, enforcing a strict exclude_guest.

Emit the magic string that indicates a module has a signature after the signature data instead of before it. This allows module_sig_check() to be made simpler and faster by the elimination of the search for the magic string. Instead we just need to do a single memcmp(). This works because at the end of the signature data there is the fixed-length signature information block. This block then falls immediately prior to the magic number. From the contents of the information block, it is trivial to calculate the size of the signature data and thus the size of the actual module data.

/proc/<pid>/numa_maps scans vma and show mempolicy under mmap_sem. It sometimes accesses task->mempolicy which can be freed without mmap_sem and numa_maps can show some garbage while scanning. This patch tries to take reference count of task->mempolicy at reading numa_maps before calling get_vma_policy(). By this, task->mempolicy will not be freed until numa_maps reaches its end. V2->v3 - updated comments to be more verbose. - removed task_lock() in numa_maps code. V1->V2 - access task->mempolicy only once and remember it. Becase kernel/exit.c can overwrite it.

Rusty had clearly not actually tested his module signing changes that I (trustingly) applied as commit e2a666d5 ("kbuild: sign the modules at install time"). That commit had multiple bugs: - using "${#VARIABLE}" to get the number of characters in a shell variable may look clever, but it's locale-dependent: it returns the number of *characters*, not bytes. And we do need bytes. So don't use "${#..}" expansion, do the stupid "wc -c" thing instead (where "c" stands for "bytes", not "characters", despite the letter. - Rusty had confused "siglen" and "signerlen", and his conversion didn't set "signerlen" at all, and incorrectly set "siglen" to the size of the signer, not the size of the signature. End result: the modified sign-file script did create something that superficially *looked* like a signature, but didn't actually work at all, and would fail the signature check. Oops. Tssk, tssk, Rusty. But Rusty was definitely right that this whole thing should be rewritten in perl by somebody who has the perl-fu to do so. That is not me, though - I'm just doing an emergency fix for the shell script. Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Pull USB fixes from Greg Kroah-Hartman: "Here are the USB patches against your 3.7-rc1 tree. There are the usual UABI header file movements, and we finally are now able to remove the dbg() macro that is over 15 years old (that had to wait for after some other trees got merged into yours during the big 3.7-rc1 merge window.) Other than that, nothing major, just a number of bugfixes and new device ids. It turns out that almost all of the usb-serial drivers had bugs in how they were handling their internal data, leaking memory, hence all of those fixups.
