Subject: Re: [perf] more perf_fuzzer memory corruption
Date: Fri, 2 May 2014 12:22:30 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.10.1405021218350.22556@vincent-weaver-1.umelst.maine.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140502154217.GW11096@twins.programming.kicks-ass.net>


I'll try the patch next.

Meanwhile, can polling on a closed event cause problems with the reference 
count?

In my various failure traces there's always been a poll() active at the 
time of crash, and I added some trace_printk()s and it looks like poll is 
at least attempting to poll on the closed file descriptor that's causing 
us problems.
