Subject: [PATCH v2] perf: report/annotate: fix segfault problem.
Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2015 05:56:25 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1428040585-52586-1-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com> (raw)
perf report and perf annotate are easy to trigger segfault if trace data
contain kernel module information like this:
# perf report -D -i ./perf.data
...
0 0 0x188 [0x50]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0: [0xffffffbff1018000(0xf068000) @ 0]: x [test_module]
...
# perf report -i ./perf.data --objdump=/path/to/objdump --kallsyms=/path/to/kallsyms
perf: Segmentation fault
-------- backtrace --------

/lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4)[0x7fb201f23bd4]
/path/to/perf[0x42dfc4]
This is because __kmod_path__parse regard '[' leading name as kernel
instead of kernel module. The DSO will then be passed to
dso__load_kernel_sym() then dso__load_kcore() because of --kallsyms
argument. The segfault is triggered because the kmap structure is not
initialized.
Although in --vmlinux case such segfault can be avoided, the symbols in
the kernel module are unable to be retrived since the attribute of DSO
is incorrect.
This patch fixes __kmod_path__parse, make it regard names like
'[test_module]' as kernel module.

Patch v1 doesn't consider module named as [aaa.bbb].
