Subject: [PATCH 1/1] perf lock: Don't pass an ERR_PTR() directly to perf_session__delete()
Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2023 09:25:56 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ZN4R1AYfsD2J8lRs@kernel.org> (raw)

While debugging a segfault on 'perf lock contention' without an
available perf.data file I noticed that it was basically calling:

	perf_session__delete(ERR_PTR(-1))

Resulting in:

  (gdb) run lock contention
  Starting program: /root/bin/perf lock contention
  [Thread debugging using libthread_db enabled]
  Using host libthread_db library "/lib64/libthread_db.so.1".
  failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory  (try 'perf record' first)
  Initializing perf session failed

  Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
  0x00000000005e7515 in auxtrace__free (session=0xffffffffffffffff) at util/auxtrace.c:2858
  2858		if (!session->auxtrace)
  (gdb) p session
  $1 = (struct perf_session *) 0xffffffffffffffff
  (gdb) bt
  #0  0x00000000005e7515 in auxtrace__free (session=0xffffffffffffffff) at util/auxtrace.c:2858
  #1  0x000000000057bb4d in perf_session__delete (session=0xffffffffffffffff) at util/session.c:300

  #5  0x00000000005016d5 in handle_internal_command (argc=2, argv=0x7fffffffe200) at perf.c:375
  #6  0x0000000000501824 in run_argv (argcp=0x7fffffffe02c, argv=0x7fffffffe020) at perf.c:419
  #7  0x0000000000501b11 in main (argc=2, argv=0x7fffffffe200) at perf.c:535
  (gdb)

So just set it to NULL after using PTR_ERR(session) to decode the error
as perf_session__delete(NULL) is supported.
