Subject: [PATCH v8 2/6] perf stat-shadow: In prepare_metric fix guard on reading NULL perf_stat_evsel
Date: Fri, 6 Feb 2026 14:25:05 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260206222509.982489-3-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260206222509.982489-1-irogers@google.com>
The aggr value is setup to always be non-null creating a redundant
guard for reading from it. Switch to using the perf_stat_evsel (ps)
and narrow the scope of aggr so that it is known valid when used.
Reported-by: Andres Freund <andres@anarazel.de>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-perf-users/cgja46br2smmznxs7kbeabs6zgv3b4olfqgh2fdp5mxk2yom4v@w6jjgov6hdi6/
Fixes: 3d65f6445fd9 ("perf stat-shadow: Read tool events directly")
