lguest: fix occasional crash in example launcher.

2012-10-12T20:50:19Z

commit ca16f580a5db7e60bfafe59a50bb133bd3347491 upstream. We usually got away with ->next on the final entry being NULL, but it finally bit me. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

kbuild: Fix gcc -x syntax

2012-10-12T20:50:17Z

commit b1e0d8b70fa31821ebca3965f2ef8619d7c5e316 upstream. The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers such as icecream do expect. This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel miscompilations. Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this incorrect -x parameter syntax.

tools/hv: Check for read/write errors

2012-10-07T15:39:32Z

commit 436473bc2173499ae274d0f50111d1e355006caf upstream. hv_kvp_daemon currently does not check whether fread() or fwrite() succeed. Add the necessary checks. Also, remove the incorrect use of feof() before fread(). Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: K. Y. Srinivasan Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tools/hv: Fix exit() error code

2012-10-07T15:39:32Z

commit 6bb22fea25624ab593eee376fa5fb82d1b13f45a upstream. Linux native exit codes are 8-bit unsigned values. exit(-1) results in an exit code of 255, which is usually reserved for shells reporting 'command not found'. Use the portable value EXIT_FAILURE. (Not that this matters much for a daemon.) Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: K. Y. Srinivasan Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tools/hv: Fix file handle leak

2012-10-07T15:39:32Z

commit d5ab482799e7c4c4b7c0aa67e8710dce28115d03 upstream. Match up each fopen() with an fclose(). Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: K. Y. Srinivasan Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

perf tools: Add missing files to build the python binding

2012-08-21T13:31:40Z

Changeset 0f6a3015: "perf tools: Support user regs and stack in sample parsing" uses hweight_long in evsel.c, so we need to drag util/hweight.c to the python binding. Ditto for ee8dd3c: "perf tools: Change strlist to use the new rblist" where we need to add util/rblist.c. Now twatch.py works again: # export PYTHONPATH=~acme/git/build/perf/python/ # ~acme/git/linux/tools/perf/python/twatch.py cpu: 4, pid: 23639, tid: 23639 { type: fork, pid: 30659, ppid: 23639, tid: 30659, ptid: 23639, time: 36287872076780} cpu: 5, pid: 30659, tid: 30659 { type: comm, pid: 30659, tid: 30659, comm: ls } cpu: 5, pid: 30659, tid: 30659 { type: exit, pid: 30659, ppid: 30659, tid: 30659, ptid: 30659, time: 36287873681539} cpu: 4, pid: 23639, tid: 23639 { type: fork, pid: 30660, ppid: 23639, tid: 30660, ptid: 23639, time: 36291720420480} cpu: 5, pid: 30659, tid: 30659 { type: exit, pid: 30659, ppid: 30659, tid: 30659, ptid: 30659, time: 36287873685714} cpu: 5, pid: 30660, tid: 30660 { type: comm, pid: 30660, tid: 30660, comm: git } ^C KeyboardInterrupt Reported-by: Jérôme Carretero Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Stephane Eranian Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-gmq82zp5blin9aml9g5tzokr@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

Merge tag 'perf-core-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

2012-08-05T10:39:12Z

Pull perf/core fixes and some late updates from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: * Make clean brace expansion fix for some shells, from Palmer Cox * Warn user just once per guest kernel when not finding kernel info, from David Ahern * perf test fix from Jiri Olsa * Fix error handling on event creation in perf top, from David Ahern * Fix check on perf_target__strnerror, from Namhyung Kim * Save the whole cmdline, from David Ahern * Prep work for the DWARF CFI post unwinder, so that it doesn't uses perf_session in lots of places, just evlist/evsel is enough.

perf tools: Remove brace expansion from clean target

2012-08-03T13:46:32Z

The clean target uses brace expansion to remove some generated files. However, the default shells on many systems do not support this feature resulting in some generated files not being removed by clean.

perf kvm top: Limit guest kernel info message to once

2012-08-03T13:43:47Z

'perf kvm top' shows a continual flurry of: Can't find guest [5201]'s kernel information if it can't find the guest info and with a lot of VMs running a user has no chance of reading them all.
