Linux kernel source tree
b72b8132d8
Multiple threads may be creating and destroying BFD objects in
situations like `perf top`.
Without appropriate initialization crashes may occur during libbfd's
cache management.
BFD's locks require recursive mutexes, add support for these.
Committer testing:
This happens only when building with 'make BUILD_NONDISTRO=1' and having
the binutils-devel package (or equivalent) installed, i.e. linking with
binutils devel files, an opt-in perf build.
Before:
root@x1:~# perf top
perf: Segmentation fault
-------- backtrace --------
<SNIP multiple failed attempts at printing a backtrace>
root@x1:~#
After this patch it works as before.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
