From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> While updating 'perf trace' on an machine with an old precompiled augmented_raw_syscalls.o that didn't setup the syscall map the new 'perf trace' codebase notices the augmented_raw_syscalls.o eBPF event, decides to use it instead of the old raw_syscalls:sys_{enter,exit} method, but then because we don't have the syscall map tries to set the tracepoint filter on the sys_{enter,exit} evsels, that are NULL, segfaulting.
Make the code more robust by checking it those tracepoints have their respective evsels in place before trying to set the tp filter. With this we still get everything to work, just not setting up the syscall filters, which is better than a segfault. Now to update the precompiled augmented_raw_syscalls.o and continue development :-) Cc: Adrian Hunter <[email protected]> Cc: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> Cc: Luis Cláudio Gonçalves <[email protected]> Cc: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Cc: Wang Nan <[email protected]> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <[email protected]> --- tools/perf/builtin-trace.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c b/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c index ebde59e61133..6689c1a114fe 100644 --- a/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c +++ b/tools/perf/builtin-trace.c @@ -2686,7 +2686,9 @@ static int trace__set_ev_qualifier_filter(struct trace *trace) { if (trace->syscalls.map) return trace__set_ev_qualifier_bpf_filter(trace); - return trace__set_ev_qualifier_tp_filter(trace); + if (trace->syscalls.events.sys_enter) + return trace__set_ev_qualifier_tp_filter(trace); + return 0; } static int bpf_map__set_filter_pids(struct bpf_map *map __maybe_unused, -- 2.19.2
