Subject: [PATCH 6.6 234/244] perf metrics: Avoid segv if default metricgroup isnt set
Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2023 19:22:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231211182056.532304701@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231211182045.784881756@linuxfoundation.org>

6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>

commit e2b005d6ec0e738df584190e21d2c7ada37266a0 upstream.

A metric is default by having "Default" within its groups. The default
metricgroup name needn't be set and this can result in segv in
default_metricgroup_cmp and perf_stat__print_shadow_stats_metricgroup
that assume it has a value when there is a Default metric group. To
avoid the segv initialize the value to "".

Fixes: 1c0e47956a8e ("perf metrics: Sort the Default metricgroup")
