Subject: [PATCH 1/2] perf-tool: Don't process samples with no valid machine object
Date: Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:05:04 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1328893505-4115-2-git-send-email-joerg.roedel@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1328893505-4115-1-git-send-email-joerg.roedel@amd.com>

The perf sample processing code relies on a valid machine
object. Make sure that this path is only entered when such a
object exists.

A counter for samples where no machine object exits is also
introduced to give the user a message about these samples.
