From e041e328c4b41e1db79bfe5ba9992c2ed771ad19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 21 May 2014 17:32:19 +0200 Subject: perf: Fix perf_event_comm() vs. exec() assumption perf_event_comm() assumes that set_task_comm() is only called on exec(), and in particular that its only called on current. Neither are true, as Dave reported a WARN triggered by set_task_comm() being called on !current. Separate the exec() hook from the comm hook.
