[PATCH 06/12] perf tools: Fix segfault due to invalid kernel dso access
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Tue Nov 25 2014 - 08:22:52 EST
From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@xxxxxxxxxx>
Jiri reported that the commit 96d78059d6d9 ("perf tools: Make vmlinux
short name more like kallsyms short name") segfaults on perf script.
When processing kernel mmap event, it should access the 'kernel'
variable as sometimes it cannot find a matching dso from build-id table
so 'dso' might be invalid.
