[PATCH 4.13 34/36] perf/cgroup: Fix perf cgroup hierarchy support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.13-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit be96b316deff35e119760982c43af74e606fa143 upstream.

The following commit:

  864c2357ca89 ("perf/core: Do not set cpuctx->cgrp for unscheduled cgroups")

made list_update_cgroup_event() skip setting cpuctx->cgrp if no cgroup event
targets %current's cgroup.

This breaks perf_event's hierarchical support because events which target one
of the ancestors get ignored.

Fix it by using cgroup_is_descendant() test instead of equality.
