Subject: [PATCH] perf powerpc-vpadtl: Fix raw_size of DTL samples
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2026 17:47:33 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260825094733.1031566-1-wangyan01@kylinos.cn> (raw)
In powerpc_vpadtl_sample(), raw_data of the synthetic sample points to a
struct powerpc_vpadtl_entry (48 bytes), but raw_size is set to
sizeof(record). record is a struct powerpc_vpadtl_entry pointer, so
sizeof(record) is the size of the pointer (8 bytes on 64-bit) rather
than the size of the record itself.
As a result, consumers that bound their access to raw_data by raw_size
only see or copy the first 8 bytes of each DTL entry instead of the full
record.
Use sizeof(*record) so that raw_size reflects the actual length of the
raw data.
Fixes: 8644834a482a ("perf powerpc: Process the DTL entries in queue and deliver samples")
