[PATCH] trace-cmd: Add check for truncated files

From: Vaibhav Nagarnaik
Date: Mon Jun 20 2011 - 20:20:56 EST


If the trace data file that is being read is truncated, mmap'ing its
non-existent page does not give any error. When the page is read, the
process dies with a SIGBUS.

This patch adds a file size check while initializing the trace data and
makes sure that the file size matches the expected size; otherwise an
error is returned.
