I guess it's easy to google this up, but could you please state in the changelog what's the difference between the current version and the UNAME26 one? Also state (and check) this change wouldn't affect other parts of the code that use this version (if there's any). thanks, jirka > > Signed-off-by: Matt Mullins <mmullins@...pensource.com> > Cc: Vinson Lee <vlee@...pensource.com> > --- > tools/perf/util/machine.c | 28 ++++++---------------------- > 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/tools/perf/util/machine.c b/tools/perf/util/machine.c > index 5ef90be2a249..51199bc271e9 100644 > --- a/tools/perf/util/machine.c > +++ b/tools/perf/util/machine.c > @@ -11,6 +11,7 @@ > #include "vdso.h" > #include <stdbool.h> > #include <symbol/kallsyms.h> > +#include <sys/utsname.h> > #include "unwind.h" > #include "linux/hash.h" > > @@ -903,31 +904,14 @@ static void map_groups__fixup_end(struct map_groups *mg) > __map_groups__fixup_end(mg, i); > } > > -static char *get_kernel_version(const char *root_dir) > +static char *get_kernel_version(void) > { > - char version[PATH_MAX]; > - FILE *file; > - char *name, *tmp; > - const char *prefix = "Linux version "; > + struct utsname utsname; > > - sprintf(version, "%s/proc/version", root_dir); > - file = fopen(version, "r"); > - if (!file) > + if (uname(&utsname)) > return NULL; > > - version[0] = '\0'; > - tmp = fgets(version, sizeof(version), file); > - fclose(file); > - > - name = strstr(version, prefix); > - if (!name) > - return NULL; > - name += strlen(prefix); > - tmp = strchr(name, ' '); > - if (tmp) > - *tmp = '\0'; > - > - return strdup(name); > + return strdup(utsname.release); > } > > static bool is_kmod_dso(struct dso *dso) > @@ -1027,7 +1011,7 @@ static int machine__set_modules_path(struct machine *machine) > char *version; > char modules_path[PATH_MAX]; > > - version = get_kernel_version(machine->root_dir); > + version = get_kernel_version(); > if (!version) > return -1; > > -- > 2.1.0 > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
