[PATCH 5.10 067/221] psample: Fix user API breakage

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

 



From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit e43accba9b071dcd106b5e7643b1b106a158cbb1 upstream.

Cited commit added a new attribute before the existing group reference
count attribute, thereby changing its value and breaking existing
applications on new kernels.

Before:

 # psample -l
 libpsample ERROR psample_group_foreach: failed to recv message: Operation not supported

After:

 # psample -l
 Group Num       Refcount        Group Seq
 1               1               0

Fix by restoring the value of the old attribute and remove the
misleading comments from the enumerator to avoid future bugs.
