Subject: [PATCH 09/12] perf header: Fix divide by zero error if f_header.attr_size==0
Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2019 18:14:56 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190729211456.6380-10-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190729211456.6380-1-acme@kernel.org>

From: Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu>

So I have been having lots of trouble with hand-crafted perf.data files
causing segfaults and the like, so I have started fuzzing the perf tool.

First issue found:

If f_header.attr_size is 0 in the perf.data file, then perf will crash
with a divide-by-zero error.

Committer note:

Added a pr_err() to tell the user why the command failed.
