Subject: [PATCH 09/12] perf jitdump: Use dirname() return value in jit_open()
Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2026 09:36:00 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260806123604.271277-10-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260806123604.271277-1-acme@kernel.org>
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
jit_open() calls dirname(jd->dir) but ignores the return value. POSIX
says dirname() may return a pointer to internal static storage — glibc
does this when the path has no '/', returning "." from a static buffer
and leaving jd->dir unchanged with the original filename.
Capture the return value and copy it back to jd->dir when dirname()
returns a different pointer.
Fixes: 9b07e27f88b9 ("perf inject: Add jitdump mmap injection support")
