[PATCH 4.16 222/279] perf cs-etm: Support unknown_thread in cs_etm_auxtrace

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jun 18 2018 - 04:25:47 EST


4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Leo Yan <leo.yan@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 46d53620044f7b574c0f3216f8b4f2ce3559ce31 ]

CoreSight doesn't allocate thread structure for unknown_thread in ETM
auxtrace, so unknown_thread is NULL pointer. If the perf data doesn't
contain valid tid and then cs_etm__mem_access() uses unknown_thread
instead as thread handler, this results in a segmentation fault when
thread__find_addr_map() accesses the thread handler.

This commit creates a new thread data which is used by unknown_thread, so
CoreSight tracing can roll back to use unknown_thread if perf data
doesn't include valid thread info. This commit also releases thread
data for initialization failure case and for normal auxtrace free flow.
