Subject: [PATCH kernel] powerpc/perf: Stop crashing with generic_compat_pmu
Date: Tue, 2 Jun 2020 12:56:12 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200602025612.62707-1-aik@ozlabs.ru> (raw)
The bhrb_filter_map ("The Branch History Rolling Buffer") callback is
only defined in raw CPUs' power_pmu structs. The "architected" CPUs use
generic_compat_pmu which does not have this callback and crashed occur.
This add a NULL pointer check for bhrb_filter_map() which behaves as if
the callback returned an error.
This does not add the same check for config_bhrb() as the only caller
checks for cpuhw->bhrb_users which remains zero if bhrb_filter_map==0.
