| |
perf data files cannot be processed until the header file is update which is done via an on_exit handler. If perf is killed due to a SIGTERM it does not run the on_exit hooks leaving the perf.data file in a random state which perf-report will happily spin on trying to read. As noted by Mike an easy reproducer is: perf record -a -g & sleep 1; killall perf
Fix by catching SIGTERM like it does SIGINT. Also need to remove the kill which was added via commit f7b7c26e.
