From: Wang Nan <wangn...@huawei.com> 'perf top' segfaults with following operation:
# perf top -e page-faults -p 11400 # 11400 never generates page-fault Then on the resulting empty interface, press right key: # ./perf top -e page-faults -p 11400 perf: Segmentation fault -------- backtrace -------- ./perf[0x535428] /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7f0dd360745f] ./perf[0x531d46] ./perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x96)[0x5340d6] ./perf[0x44ba2f] /lib64/libpthread.so.0(+0x81d0)[0x7f0dd49dc1d0] /lib64/libc.so.6(clone+0x6c)[0x7f0dd36b90dc] The bug resides in perf_evsel__hists_browse() that, in the above circumstance browser->selection can be NULL, but code after skip_annotation doesn't consider it. This patch fix it by checking browser->selection before fetching browser->selection->map.
