mainlining shenanigans
A config terms list was spliced twice, resulting in a never-ending loop when the list was traversed. Fix by using list_splice_init() and copying and freeing the lists as necessary. This patch also depends on patch "perf tools: Factor out copy_config_terms() and free_config_terms()" Example on ADL: Before: # perf record -e '{intel_pt//,cycles/aux-sample-size=4096/pp}' uname & # jobs [1]+ Running perf record -e "{intel_pt//,cycles/aux-sample-size=4096/pp}" uname # perf top -E 10 PerfTop: 4071 irqs/sec kernel: 6.9% exact: 100.0% lost: 0/0 drop: 0/0 [4000Hz cycles], (all, 24 CPUs) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 97.60% perf [.] __evsel__get_config_term 0.25% [kernel] [k] kallsyms_expand_symbol.constprop.13 0.24% perf [.] kallsyms__parse 0.15% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock 0.14% [kernel] [k] number 0.13% [kernel] [k] advance_transaction 0.08% [kernel] [k] format_decode 0.08% perf [.] map__process_kallsym_symbol 0.08% perf [.] rb_insert_color 0.08% [kernel] [k] vsnprintf exiting. # kill %1 After: # perf record -e '{intel_pt//,cycles/aux-sample-size=4096/pp}' uname & Linux [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.060 MB perf.data ] # perf script | head perf-exec 604 [001] 1827.312293: psb: psb offs: 0 ffffffffb8415e87 pt_config_start+0x37 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 604 1827.312293: 1 branches: ffffffffb856a3bd event_sched_in.isra.133+0xfd ([kernel.kallsyms]) => ffffffffb856a9a0 perf_pmu_nop_void+0x0 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 604 1827.312293: 1 branches: ffffffffb856b10e merge_sched_in+0x26e ([kernel.kallsyms]) => ffffffffb856a2c0 event_sched_in.isra.133+0x0 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 604 1827.312293: 1 branches: ffffffffb856a45d event_sched_in.isra.133+0x19d ([kernel.kallsyms]) => ffffffffb8568b80 perf_event_set_state.part.61+0x0 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 604 1827.312293: 1 branches: ffffffffb8568b86 perf_event_set_state.part.61+0x6 ([kernel.kallsyms]) => ffffffffb85662a0 perf_event_update_time+0x0 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 604 1827.312293: 1 branches: ffffffffb856a35c event_sched_in.isra.133+0x9c ([kernel.kallsyms]) => ffffffffb8567610 perf_log_itrace_start+0x0 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 604 1827.312293: 1 branches: ffffffffb856a377 event_sched_in.isra.133+0xb7 ([kernel.kallsyms]) => ffffffffb8403b40 x86_pmu_add+0x0 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 604 1827.312293: 1 branches: ffffffffb8403b86 x86_pmu_add+0x46 ([kernel.kallsyms]) => ffffffffb8403940 collect_events+0x0 ([kernel.kallsyms]) perf-exec 604 1827.312293: 1 branches: ffffffffb8403a7b collect_events+0x13b ([kernel.kallsyms]) => ffffffffb8402cd0 collect_event+0x0 ([kernel.kallsyms]) Fixes: |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
