From: Milian Wolff <milian.wolff@xxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d4046e8e17b9f378cb861982ef71c63911b5dff3 ] When the function name for an inline frame is invalid, we must not try to demangle this symbol, otherwise we crash with: #0 0x0000555555895c01 in bfd_demangle () #1 0x0000555555823262 in demangle_sym (dso=0x555555d92b90, elf_name=0x0, kmodule=0) at util/symbol-elf.c:215 #2 dso__demangle_sym (dso=dso@entry=0x555555d92b90, kmodule=<optimized out>, kmodule@entry=0, elf_name=elf_name@entry=0x0) at util/symbol-elf.c:400 #3 0x00005555557fef4b in new_inline_sym (funcname=0x0, base_sym=0x555555d92b90, dso=0x555555d92b90) at util/srcline.c:89 #4 inline_list__append_dso_a2l (dso=dso@entry=0x555555c7bb00, node=node@entry=0x555555e31810, sym=sym@entry=0x555555d92b90) at util/srcline.c:264 #5 0x00005555557ff27f in addr2line (dso_name=dso_name@entry=0x555555d92430 "/home/milian/.debug/.build-id/f7/186d14bb94f3c6161c010926da66033d24fce5/elf", addr=addr@entry=2888, file=file@entry=0x0, line=line@entry=0x0, dso=dso@entry=0x555555c7bb00, unwind_inlines=unwind_inlines@entry=true, node=0x555555e31810, sym=0x555555d92b90) at util/srcline.c:313 #6 0x00005555557ffe7c in addr2inlines (sym=0x555555d92b90, dso=0x555555c7bb00, addr=2888, dso_name=0x555555d92430 "/home/milian/.debug/.build-id/f7/186d14bb94f3c6161c010926da66033d24fce5/elf") at util/srcline.c:358 So instead handle the case where we get invalid function names for inlined frames and use a fallback '??' function name instead. While this crash was originally reported by Hadrien for rust code, I can now also reproduce it with trivial C++ code. Indeed, it seems like libbfd fails to interpret the debug information for the inline frame symbol name: $ addr2line -e /home/milian/.debug/.build-id/f7/186d14bb94f3c6161c010926da66033d24fce5/elf -if b48 main /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:610 ?? /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:618 ?? /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:675 ?? /usr/include/c++/8.2.1/complex:685 main /home/milian/projects/kdab/rnd/hotspot/tests/test-clients/cpp-inlining/main.cpp:39 I've reported this bug upstream and also attached a patch there which should fix this issue: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23715 Reported-by: Hadrien Grasland <grasland@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Milian Wolff <milian.wolff@xxxxxxxx> Cc: Jin Yao <yao.jin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@xxxxxxxxxx> Fixes: a64489c56c30 ("perf report: Find the inline stack for a given address") [ The above 'Fixes:' cset is where originally the problem was introduced, i.e. using a2l->funcname without checking if it is NULL, but this current patch fixes the current codebase, i.e. multiple csets were applied after a64489c56c30 before the problem was reported by Hadrien ] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180926135207.30263-3-milian.wolff@xxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- tools/perf/util/srcline.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/tools/perf/util/srcline.c b/tools/perf/util/srcline.c index 09d6746e6ec8..e767c4a9d4d2 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/srcline.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/srcline.c @@ -85,6 +85,9 @@ static struct symbol *new_inline_sym(struct dso *dso, struct symbol *inline_sym; char *demangled = NULL; + if (!funcname) + funcname = "??"; + if (dso) { demangled = dso__demangle_sym(dso, 0, funcname); if (demangled) -- 2.17.1
