From: Wang Nan <[email protected]> If feed perf a symbol filter in cmdline and the result is empty, pressing 'Enter' in the hist browser causes crash:
# ./perf report perf.data <-- Common mistake for beginners Then press 'Enter': perf: Segmentation fault -------- backtrace -------- /home/wangnan/perf[0x53e578] /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x3545f)[0x7f76bafe045f] /home/wangnan/perf[0x539dd4] /home/wangnan/perf(perf_evlist__tui_browse_hists+0x96)[0x53d216] /home/wangnan/perf(cmd_report+0x1b9f)[0x442c7f] /home/wangnan/perf[0x47efa2] /home/wangnan/perf(main+0x5f5)[0x432fa5] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf4)[0x7f76bafccbd4] /home/wangnan/perf[0x4330d4] This is because 'perf.data' is interpreted as a symbol filter, and the result is empty, so selection is empty. However, hist_browser__toggle_fold() forgets to check it. This patch simply return false when selection is NULL.
