[PATCH 3/3] perf session: Avoid infinite loop if an event is truncated

From: Petr Malat
Date: Tue Nov 24 2020 - 05:00:29 EST


If an event was truncated at the end of a perf.data file larger than
MAP_SIZE, the event reading code ended up in an infinite loop. Break
this loop by making sure the mapping window is always shifting
towards the end of the file.

Fixes: bb1835a3b86c ("perf session: Fix decompression of PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED records")
Fixes: 57fc032ad643 ("perf session: Avoid infinite loop when seeing invalid header.size")
