Subject: perf/ioctl: Add check for the sample_period value
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=913a90bc5a3a06b1f04c337320e9aeee2328dd77;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

perf/ioctl: Add check for the sample_period value

perf_event_open() limits the sample_period to 63 bits. See:

  0819b2e30ccb ("perf: Limit perf_event_attr::sample_period to 63 bits")

Make ioctl() consistent with it.

Also on PowerPC, negative sample_period could cause a recursive
PMIs leading to a hang (reported when running perf-fuzzer).
