Subject: perf tools: Make the mmap length autotuning more robust
X-Git-Tag: v3.19-rc1~21^2~1^2~3
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1be300f4cc1ddf975f158b4ab2f880854b29306b;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-exynos.git

perf tools: Make the mmap length autotuning more robust

If /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb is not (power of 2 + PAGE_SIZE_in_kb)
and we let the perf tools do mmap length autosizing based on that, then, for
non-CAP_IPC_LOCK users when /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid is > -1, then
we get an -EINVAL that ends up in:

  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace usleep 1
  Invalid argument
  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ perf record usleep 1
  failed to mmap with 22 (Invalid argument)

After this fix:

  [acme@ssdandy linux]$ trace usleep 1
  <SNIP>
   0.806 ( 0.006 ms): munmap(addr: 0x7f7e4740a000, len: 66467) = 0

   0.873 ( 0.003 ms): brk(brk: 0x7dc000                      ) = 0x7dc000
   0.877 ( 0.001 ms): brk(                                   ) = 0x7dc000
   0.953 ( 0.058 ms): nanosleep(rqtp: 0x7fff26ab9420         ) = 0
