From: Matt Helsley Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2010 20:01:20 +0000 (-0700) Subject: perf events: Clean up pid passing X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=38a81da2205f94e8a2a834b51a6b99c91fc7c2e8;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git perf events: Clean up pid passing The kernel perf event creation path shouldn't use find_task_by_vpid() because a vpid exists in a specific namespace. find_task_by_vpid() uses current's pid namespace which isn't always the correct namespace to use for the vpid in all the places perf_event_create_kernel_counter() (and thus find_get_context()) is called. The goal is to clean up pid namespace handling and prevent bugs like: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17281 Instead of using pids switch find_get_context() to use task struct pointers directly. The syscall is responsible for resolving the pid to a task struct. This moves the pid namespace resolution into the syscall much like every other syscall that takes pid parameters.
