Subject: [PATCH 1/2] perf probe: Prevent segfault when reading probe point with absolute address
Date: Tue, 25 Aug 2015 13:27:35 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1440509256-193590-1-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com> (raw)

'perf probe -l' panic if there is a manually inserted probing point
with absolute address. For example:

 # echo 'p:probe/abs_ffffffff811e6615 0xffffffff811e6615' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
 # perf probe -l
 Segmentation fault (core dumped)

This patch fix this problem by considering the situation that
"tp->symbol == NULL" in find_perf_probe_point_from_dwarf() and
find_perf_probe_point_from_map().

After this patch:

 # perf probe -l
 probe:abs_ffffffff811e6615 (on SyS_write+5@fs/read_write.c)

And when debug info is missing:

 # rm -rf ~/.debug
 # mv /lib/modules/4.2.0-rc1+/build/vmlinux /lib/modules/4.2.0-rc1+/build/vmlinux.bak
 # perf probe -l
 probe:abs_ffffffff811e6615 (on sys_write+5)
