From: He Kuang <heku...@huawei.com> The first argument passed to find_probe_point_lazy() should be CU die, which will be passed to die_walk_lines() when lazy_line matches. Currently, when we probe with lazy_line pattern to file without function name, NULL pointer is passed and causes a segment fault.
Can be reproduced as following: $ perf probe -k vmlinux --add='fs/super.c;s->s_count=1;' [ 1958.984658] perf[1020]: segfault at 10 ip 00007fc6e10d8c71 sp 00007ffcbfaaf900 error 4 in libdw-0.161.so[7fc6e10ce000+34000] Segmentation fault After this patch: $ perf probe -k vmlinux --add='fs/super.c;s->s_count=1;' Added new event: probe:_stext (on @fs/super.c) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:_stext -aR sleep 1 Signed-off-by: He Kuang <heku...@huawei.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <a...@redhat.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu...@hitachi.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhy...@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijls...@chello.nl> Cc: Wang Nan <wangn...@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1428925290-5623-3-git-send-email-heku...@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <a...@redhat.com> --- tools/perf/util/probe-finder.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/util/probe-finder.c b/tools/perf/util/probe-finder.c index 431c12d299a2..e91101b8f60f 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/probe-finder.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/probe-finder.c @@ -1067,7 +1067,7 @@ static int debuginfo__find_probes(struct debuginfo *dbg, if (pp->function) ret = find_probe_point_by_func(pf); else if (pp->lazy_line) - ret = find_probe_point_lazy(NULL, pf); + ret = find_probe_point_lazy(&pf->cu_die, pf); else { pf->lno = pp->line; ret = find_probe_point_by_line(pf); -- 1.9.3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
