The affinity code in "affinity_set" function access array named
"sched_cpus". The size for this array is allocated in affinity_setup
function which is nothing but value from get_cpu_set_size. This is used
to contain the cpumask value for each cpu.
While setting bit for each cpu, it calls "set_bit" function which access
index in sched_cpus array. If we provide a command-line option to -C
which is more than the number of CPU's present in the system, the
set_bit could access an array member which is out-of the array size.
This is because currently, there is no boundary check for the CPU. This
will result in seg fault:
<<>>
./perf stat -C 12323431 ls
Perf can support 2048 CPUs. Consider raising MAX_NR_CPUS
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
<<>>
Fix this by adding boundary check for the array.
After the fix from powerpc system:
<<>>
./perf stat -C 12323431 ls 1>out
Perf can support 2048 CPUs. Consider raising MAX_NR_CPUS
