Subject: [PATCH 11/11] perf: Avoid uninitialized sample type reference in __perf_event__output_id_sample
Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:29:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1380572952-30729-12-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1380572952-30729-1-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org>

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

__perf_event__output_id_sample looks at data->type to decide
what to output.

A lot of of the custom output functions, for example perf_log_throttle
start with perf_event_header__init_id, which only initializes
the header when event->attr.sample_id_all is true.

But when this is false the output function is still called,
and will look at an uninitialized header.

I changed all the callers to perf_event_header__init_id
to __perf_event_header__init_id which unconditionally
initializes the header.

FWIW I'm not fully sure this is the correct fix and what the
exact semantics of sample_id_all are supposed to be.
Should it disable all throttling etc. messages?
Please review carefully.
