Please me let me know if a valid issue so we can get a fix in.
If it crashes it must be a valid issue of course.
But I'm not sure about your bisect. Hard to see how my patch
could cause this. Sometimes bisects go wrong.
You verified by just reverting the patch?
It no longer reverts cleanly. And the previous patch - 4ca69ca9db3a -
did not have this crash:
root@localhost:~# ./perf_debug_ record -e armv8_pmuv3_0/br_mis_pred/ sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data (6 samples) ]
root@localhost:~#
First thing I would also try is to run with valgrind or ASan and see if it
reports anything.
Here's the valgrind output:
root@localhost:~#valgrind --leak-check=yes ./perf_debug_ record -e
