SubjectRE: [PATCH 1/2] perf probe: Prevent segfault when reading probe point with absolute address
Date
> From: Wang Nan [mailto:wangnan0@huawei.com]
>
> 'perf probe -l' panic if there is a manually inserted probing point
> with absolute address. For example:
>
> # echo 'p:probe/abs_ffffffff811e6615 0xffffffff811e6615' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
> # perf probe -l
> Segmentation fault (core dumped)
>
> This patch fix this problem by considering the situation that
> "tp->symbol == NULL" in find_perf_probe_point_from_dwarf() and
> find_perf_probe_point_from_map().

Oops, OK this is a bug.

Thanks!
