perf namespaces: Add reference count checking
Add reference count checking controlled by REFCNT_CHECKING ifdef. The reference count checking interposes an allocated pointer between the reference counted struct on a get and frees the pointer on a put. Accesses after a put cause faults and use after free, missed puts are caughts as leaks and double puts are double frees. This checking helped resolve a memory leak and use after free: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-perf-users/CAP-5=fWZH20L4kv-BwVtGLwR=Em3AOOT+Q4QGivvQuYn5AsPRg@mail.gmail.com/ Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <[email protected]> Cc: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> Cc: Alexey Bayduraev <[email protected]> Cc: Dmitriy Vyukov <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Cc: Riccardo Mancini <[email protected]> Cc: Stephane Eranian <[email protected]> Cc: Stephen Brennan <[email protected]> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected] [ Extracted from a larger patch ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]>
