[PATCH dwarves] pahole: avoid adding same struct structure to two rb trees

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When pahole is executed in '-F dwarf --sort' mode there are two places
where 'struct structure' instance could be added to the rb_tree:

The first is triggered from the following call stack:

  print_classes()
    structures__add()
      __structures__add()
        (adds to global pahole.c:structures__tree)

The second is triggered from the following call stack:

  print_ordered_classes()
    resort_classes()
      resort_add()
        (adds to local rb_tree instance)

Both places use the same 'struct structure::rb_node' field, so if both
code pathes are executed the final state of the 'structures__tree'
might be inconsistent.

For example, this could be observed when DEBUG_CHECK_LEAKS build flag
is set. Here is the command line snippet that eventually leads to a
segfault:

  $ for i in $(seq 1 100); do \
      echo $i; \
      pahole -F dwarf --flat_arrays --sort --jobs vmlinux > /dev/null \
             || break; \
    done

GDB shows the following stack trace:

  Thread 1 "pahole" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

This commit modifies resort_classes() to re-use 'structures__tree' and
to reset 'rb_node' fields before adding structure instances to the
tree for a second time.

Lock/unlock structures_lock to be consistent with structures_add() and
structures__delete() code.
