From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Tue, 18 Jan 2011 16:10:32 +0000 (+0100) Subject: perf: Validate cpu early in perf_event_alloc() X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=66832eb4baaaa9abe4c993ddf9113a79e39b9915;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git perf: Validate cpu early in perf_event_alloc() Starting from perf_event_alloc()->perf_init_event(), the kernel assumes that event->cpu is either -1 or the valid CPU number. Change perf_event_alloc() to validate this argument early. This also means we can remove the similar check in find_get_context().
