Subject: [PATCH 3/4] perf tools: Check perf.data owner
Date: Wed, 19 Aug 2009 11:18:26 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090819092023.896648538@chello.nl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090819091823.916851355@chello.nl>

[-- Attachment #1: perf-tool-check-uid.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2900 bytes --]

Add an owner check to opening perf.data files and a switch to silence
it.

Because perf-report/perf-annotate are binary parsers reading another
users' perf.data file could be a security risk if the file were
explicitly engineered to trigger bugs in the parser (we hope of course
there are non such bugs, but you never know).
