Subject[PATCH 4.14 54/61] perf test: "Session topology" dumps core on s390
Date
4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Richter <tmricht@linux.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit d121109100bda84bbbb199dab97f9d56432ab235 ]

The "perf test Session topology" entry fails with core dump on s390. The root
cause is a NULL pointer dereference in function check_cpu_topology() line 76
(or line 82 without -v).

The session->header.env.cpu variable is NULL because on s390 function
process_cpu_topology() returns with error:

socket_id number is too big.
You may need to upgrade the perf tool.

and releases the env.cpu variable via zfree() and sets it to NULL.

Here is the gdb output:
(gdb) n
76 pr_debug("CPU %d, core %d, socket %d\n", i,
(gdb) n

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00000000010f4d9e in check_cpu_topology (path=0x3ffffffd6c8
"/tmp/perf-test-J6CHMa", map=0x14a1740) at tests/topology.c:76
76 pr_debug("CPU %d, core %d, socket %d\n", i,
(gdb)

Make sure the env.cpu variable is not used when its NULL.
Test for NULL pointer and return TEST_SKIP if so.

Output before:

[root@p23lp27 perf]# ./perf test -F 39
39: Session topology :Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[root@p23lp27 perf]#

Output after:

[root@p23lp27 perf]# ./perf test -vF 39
39: Session topology :
--- start ---
templ file: /tmp/perf-test-Ajx59D
socket_id number is too big.You may need to upgrade the perf tool.
---- end ----
Session topology: Skip
