Linux kernel source tree

The same buf is used for the program headers and reading notes. As the
notes memory may be reallocated then this corrupts the memory pointed
to by the phdr. Using the same buffer is in any case a logic
error. Rather than deal with the duplicated code, introduce an elf32
boolean and a union for either the elf32 or elf64 headers that are in
use. Let the program headers have their own memory and grow the buffer
for notes as necessary.
Before `perf list -j` compiled with asan would crash with:

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.
