Messages in this thread Patch in this message | | | From | Yann Droneaud <> | Subject | [PATCH] events: add a flag to perf_event_open() to set O_CLOEXEC | Date | Wed, 30 Oct 2013 22:35:50 +0100 |
| |
This patch adds PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag for perf_event_open() syscall.
perf_event_open() creates a new file descriptor, but unlike open() syscall, it lack a flag to atomicaly set close-on-exec (O_CLOEXEC).
Not using O_CLOEXEC by default and not letting userspace provide the "open" flags should be avoided: in most case O_CLOEXEC must be used to not leak file descriptor across exec().
Using O_CLOEXEC when creating a file descriptor allows userspace to set latter, using fcntl(), without any risk of race, if the file descriptor is going to be inherited or not across exec().

Hi Peter,
This patch should replaces "[PATCH v4 6/7] events: use get_unused_fd_flags(0) instead of get_unused_fd()"
Please have a look.
Regards.
