Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo: * Validate syscall id before growing syscall table in 'trace', fixing potential excessive memory usage. * Validate perf_sample.raw_data, making 'trace' more robust, avoiding some potential SEGFAULTs when reading tracepoint fields. * Fix exclude_guest parse events 'perf test's, from Jiri Olsa. * Do not flush maps on COMM, that is sent by the kernel when a process is exec'ed, but also when a process changes its name. Since we were assuming a COMM always meant an EXEC, we were losing track of a process maps by flushing its maps. Fix from Luigi Semenzato. * A recent patch introduced a problem by not initializing what should be the first kind of pager to use, 'man', instead it was being left as zero which means no pager. This caused 'perf subcmd --help' to produce no output. Fix from Namhyung Kim. Signed-off-by:Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:
