[PATCH 3/3] perf hists browser: Fix segfault when showing callchain
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Thu Jan 08 2015 - 10:37:42 EST
From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@xxxxxxxxxx>
When perf report on TUI shows callchain it checks first node has
siblings to determine whether it needs to print percentage value.
But it missed a case that first node is NULL. So sometimes it segfaults
like below:
$ perf top -g
perf: Segmentation fault
-------- backtrace --------
perf[0x4fcefb]
/usr/lib/libc.so.6(+0x33b20)[0x7f2a35839b20]

$ addr2line -e `which perf` 0x4f6058
/home/namhyung/project/linux/tools/perf/ui/browsers/hists.c:553
I don't know why the backtrace didn't print some symbols..
