Subject: [PATCH 1/2] perf probe: Fix a segfault if asked for variable it doesn't find
Date: Wed, 4 Jun 2014 15:26:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1401888420-23191-2-git-send-email-jolsa@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1401888420-23191-1-git-send-email-jolsa@kernel.org>
From: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>
Fix a segfault bug by asking for variable it doesn't find.
Since the convert_variable() didn't handle error code returned
from convert_variable_location(), it just passed an incomplete
variable field and then a segfault was occurred when formatting
the field.
This fixes that bug by handling success code correctly in
convert_variable(). Other callers of convert_variable_location()
are correctly checking the return code.
This bug was introduced by following commit. But another hidden
erroneous error handling has been there previously (-ENOMEM case).
