[PATCH 0/3] tools/perf: Fix perf probe crash by broken DWARF file

["Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@kernel.org>]

Hi,

Here is a series of patches for perf probe which improves the robustness
against broken DWARF file.

Since the Clang generates the out of standard DWARF5 file, the perf probe
crashes or failed to analyze it. There are actually fragile code against
it, so I fixed it ([1/3]) to avoid crash by SEGV. And make it accepts
Clang's DWARF5 file ([2/3],[3/3]).

Without this series, the perf probe crashes with the DWARF5 file
which generated by clang as below;
 
  $ ./perf probe -k $BIN_PATH/vmlinux -s $SRC_PATH -L vfs_read:10
  Segmentation fault

This series fixes it to handle such file correctly;

  $ ./perf probe -k $BIN_PATH/vmlinux -s $SRC_PATH -L vfs_read:10
  <vfs_read@$SRC_PATH/fs/read_write.c:10>
 
       11         ret = rw_verify_area(READ, file, pos, count);
       12         if (ret)
                           return ret;

This issue is reported on LLVM ML;
