From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Tue, 10 May 2016 19:34:53 +0000 (-0300) Subject: perf core: Generalize max_stack sysctl handler X-Git-Tag: v4.14-rc1~2845^2~57^2~5 X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a831100aeefbe6d9f3e47a3e2712f82c042f1f5c;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi.git perf core: Generalize max_stack sysctl handler So that it can be used for other stack related knobs, such as the upcoming one to tweak the max number of of contexts per stack sample. In all those cases we can only change the value if there are no perf sessions collecting stacks, so they need to grab that mutex, etc. Cc: David Ahern Cc: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-8t3fk94wuzp8m2z1n4gc0s17@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- diff --git a/kernel/events/callchain.c b/kernel/events/callchain.c index b9325e7..7fc8993 100644 --- a/kernel/events/callchain.c +++ b/kernel/events/callchain.c @@ -228,7 +228,8 @@ exit_put: int perf_event_max_stack_handler(struct ctl_table *table, int write, void __user *buffer, size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos) { - int new_value = sysctl_perf_event_max_stack, ret; + int *value = table->data; + int new_value = *value, ret; struct ctl_table new_table = *table; new_table.data = &new_value; @@ -240,7 +241,7 @@ int perf_event_max_stack_handler(struct ctl_table *table, int write, if (atomic_read(&nr_callchain_events)) ret = -EBUSY; else - sysctl_perf_event_max_stack = new_value; + *value = new_value; mutex_unlock(&callchain_mutex); diff --git a/kernel/sysctl.c b/kernel/sysctl.c index c8b3186..0ec6907 100644 --- a/kernel/sysctl.c +++ b/kernel/sysctl.c @@ -1149,7 +1149,7 @@ static struct ctl_table kern_table[] = { }, { .procname = "perf_event_max_stack", - .data = NULL, /* filled in by handler */ + .data = &sysctl_perf_event_max_stack, .maxlen = sizeof(sysctl_perf_event_max_stack), .mode = 0644, .proc_handler = perf_event_max_stack_handler,
