[PATCH 09/21] perf evlist: Fix mmap pages rounding to power of 2

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Mon Dec 09 2013 - 14:41:34 EST


From: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@xxxxxxxxx>

'next_pow2()' only works for 'unsigned int' but the argument is
'unsigned long'. Checking for values less than (1 << 31) ensures that
'next_pow2()' is not passed a value out of range but lets anything else
go through unvalidated.

As a result mmap_pages of zero is used e.g.

perf record -v -m2147483649 uname
mmap size 0B
failed to mmap with 22 (Invalid argument)

Fixed:

perf record -m2147483649 uname
rounding mmap pages size to 17592186044416 bytes (4294967296 pages)
Invalid argument for --mmap_pages/-m
