From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> In each case, if the NULL test on thread is needed, then the dereference should be after the NULL test. A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this problem is as follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/): // <smpl> @match exists@ expression x, E; identifier fld; @@ * x->fld ... when != \(x = E\|&x\) * x == NULL // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- tools/perf/builtin-annotate.c | 4 ++-- tools/perf/builtin-report.c | 4 ++-- tools/perf/builtin-sched.c | 4 ++-- tools/perf/builtin-trace.c | 4 ++-- 4 files changed, 8 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-sched.c b/tools/perf/builtin-sched.c index 6b00529..6e580ff 100644 --- a/tools/perf/builtin-sched.c +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-sched.c @@ -1581,14 +1581,14 @@ process_sample_event(event_t *event, unsigned long offset, unsigned long head) (void *)(long)ip, (long long)period); - dump_printf(" ... thread: %s:%d\n", thread->comm, thread->pid); - if (thread == NULL) { eprintf("problem processing %d event, skipping it.\n", event->header.type); return -1; } + dump_printf(" ... thread: %s:%d\n", thread->comm, thread->pid); + process_raw_event(event, more_data, cpu, timestamp, thread); return 0; diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-report.c b/tools/perf/builtin-report.c index f57a23b..df265e2 100644 --- a/tools/perf/builtin-report.c +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-report.c @@ -634,14 +634,14 @@ process_sample_event(event_t *event, unsigned long offset, unsigned long head) } } - dump_printf(" ... thread: %s:%d\n", thread->comm, thread->pid); - if (thread == NULL) { eprintf("problem processing %d event, skipping it.\n", event->header.type); return -1; } + dump_printf(" ... thread: %s:%d\n", thread->comm, thread->pid); + if (comm_list && !strlist__has_entry(comm_list, thread->comm)) return 0; diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-annotate.c b/tools/perf/builtin-annotate.c index 8c84320..7c1fa3a 100644 --- a/tools/perf/builtin-annotate.c +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-annotate.c @@ -110,14 +110,14 @@ process_sample_event(event_t *event, unsigned long offset, unsigned long head) event->ip.pid, (void *)(long)ip); - dump_printf(" ... thread: %s:%d\n", thread->comm, thread->pid); - if (thread == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "problem processing %d event, skipping it.\n", event->header.type); return -1; } + dump_printf(" ... thread: %s:%d\n", thread->comm, thread->pid); + if (event->header.misc & PERF_RECORD_MISC_KERNEL) { level = 'k'; sym = kernel_maps__find_symbol(ip, &map); diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c b/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c index fb3f3c2..b9c4371 100644 --- a/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c @@ -87,14 +87,14 @@ process_sample_event(event_t *event, unsigned long offset, unsigned long head) (void *)(long)ip, (long long)period); - dump_printf(" ... thread: %s:%d\n", thread->comm, thread->pid); - if (thread == NULL) { eprintf("problem processing %d event, skipping it.\n", event->header.type); return -1; } + dump_printf(" ... thread: %s:%d\n", thread->comm, thread->pid); + if (sample_type & PERF_SAMPLE_RAW) { struct { u32 size; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
