From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 96167167b6e17b25c0e05ecc31119b73baeab094 ] 'perf script' crashes currently when printing mixed trace points and other events because the trace format does not handle events without trace meta data. Add a simple check to avoid that. % cat > test.c main() { printf("Hello world\n"); } ^D % gcc -g -o test test.c % sudo perf probe -x test 'test.c:3' % perf record -e '{cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/,probe_test:main}:S' ./test % perf script <segfault> Committer testing: Before: # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.28.so malloc Added new event: probe_libc:malloc (on malloc in /usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -aR sleep 1 # perf probe -l probe_libc:malloc (on __libc_malloc@malloc/malloc.c in /usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so) # perf record -e '{cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/,probe_libc:*}:S' sleep 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.023 MB perf.data (40 samples) ] # perf script Segmentation fault (core dumped) ^C # After: # perf script | head -6 sleep 2888 94796.944981: 16198 cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/: ffffffff925dc04f get_random_u32+0x1f (/lib/modules/5.0.0-rc2+/build/vmlinux) sleep 2888 [-01] 94796.944981: probe_libc:malloc: sleep 2888 94796.944983: 4713 cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/: ffffffff922763af change_protection+0xcf (/lib/modules/5.0.0-rc2+/build/vmlinux) sleep 2888 [-01] 94796.944983: probe_libc:malloc: sleep 2888 94796.944986: 9934 cpu/cpu-cycles,period=10000/: ffffffff922777e0 move_page_tables+0x0 (/lib/modules/5.0.0-rc2+/build/vmlinux) sleep 2888 [-01] 94796.944986: probe_libc:malloc: # Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@xxxxxxxxxx> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190117194834.21940-1-andi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- tools/perf/builtin-script.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-script.c b/tools/perf/builtin-script.c index a7b4d3f611c59..5c070a600233a 100644 --- a/tools/perf/builtin-script.c +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-script.c @@ -1746,7 +1746,7 @@ static void process_event(struct perf_script *script, return; } - if (PRINT_FIELD(TRACE)) { + if (PRINT_FIELD(TRACE) && sample->raw_data) { event_format__fprintf(evsel->tp_format, sample->cpu, sample->raw_data, sample->raw_size, fp); } -- 2.19.1
