From: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@xxxxxxxxxx> Currently we only check the magic number to see whether a blktrace is valid or not, but Bill Broadley did meet with a case that the cpu info is wrong with a number of 1725552676. So in resize_cpu_info, we meet with a overflow when calculating size = new_count * sizeof(struct per_cpu_info); And the program will be either segfault or has the error of out of memory. Although this is more likely a kernel problem, the blkparse shoudn't segfault for it. So this patch just check whether the cpu stored in the trace is the same as the file, if not, just warn it out and skip it.
