perf cs-etm: Remove duplicate and incorrect aux size checks
mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.16-rc5 commit 7cc9680c category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I636PS CVE: NA Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=7cc9680c4be7c1da7a3570711f01273b781b936b -------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are two checks, one is for size when running without admin, but this one is covered by the driver and reported on in more detail here (builtin-record.c): pr_err("Permission error mapping pages.\n" "Consider increasing " "/proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_mlock_kb,\n" "or try again with a smaller value of -m/--mmap_pages.\n" "(current value: %u,%u)\n", This had the effect of artificially limiting the aux buffer size to a value smaller than what was allowed because perf_event_mlock_kb wasn't taken into account. The second is to check for a power of two, but this is covered here (evlist.c): pr_info("rounding mmap pages size to %s (%lu pages)\n", buf, pages); Reviewed-by:Leo Yan <leo.yan@linaro.org> Signed-off-by:
