Disable the checksum db and the module proxy. They aren't needed for tests and disabling means we don't need internet access. Signed-off-by: Lorenz Bauer <[email protected]>
Running v4.9 in vimto, trying to create a perf event via perf_event_open
returns EIO. I've tracked this down to a check in uprobe_register:
if (!inode->i_mapping->a_ops->readpage && !shmem_mapping(inode->i_mapping))
return -EIO;
See https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v4.9.337/source/kernel/events/uprobes.c#L880
My hunch is that this is related to how vimto sets up the overlayfs mount: if
the probed binary is below the overlayfs the setup fails.
Instead of fixing vimto, stop testing these code paths on v4.9. That kernel
is already EOL so there is not much use in investing more time.
