Subject: [PATCH v4 3/6] perf libdw: Fix libdw API contract violations
Date: Sun,  3 May 2026 10:10:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260503171032.1559338-4-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260503171032.1559338-1-irogers@google.com>

Check return values of `dwfl_report_end` and `dwfl_module_addrdie`.
Check `die_get_call_lineno` for errors.

Additionally:
 - Introduce `inline_node__clear_frames()` to clean up partial
   allocations.
 - Ensure `*file` is freed and inline frames are cleared on error in
   `libdw__addr2line()` to prevent memory leaks and duplicated
   callchains when falling back to other unwinders.
 - Allow DWARF line 0 in `libdw_a2l_cb()`, as it is a valid
   reference for compiler-generated code.
 - Fix the parent srcline lookup in `libdw_a2l_cb()` to target the
   correct parent node depending on the callchain order
   (ORDER_CALLER/ORDER_CALLEE).

Fixes: b7a2b011e962 ("perf powerpc: Unify the skip-callchain-idx libdw with that for addr2line")
Fixes: 88c51002d06f ("perf addr2line: Add a libdw implementation")
Assisted-by: Gemini-CLI:Google Gemini 3
Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>
---
v4:
 - Fix memory leaks and duplicated callchains on unwinding errors.
 - Support DWARF line 0 in inline list.
 - Fix callchain parent update in ORDER_CALLER mode.
