[PATCH 3/3] perf report: don't crash on invalid inline debug information
From: Milian Wolff
Date: Wed Sep 26 2018 - 09:58:31 EST
When the function name for an inline frame is invalid, we must
not try to demangle this symbol, otherwise we crash with:
#0 0x0000555555895c01 in bfd_demangle ()
#1 0x0000555555823262 in demangle_sym (dso=0x555555d92b90, elf_name=0x0, kmodule=0) at util/symbol-elf.c:215

#3 0x00005555557fef4b in new_inline_sym (funcname=0x0, base_sym=0x555555d92b90, dso=0x555555d92b90) at util/srcline.c:89

So instead handle the case where we get invalid function names
for inlined frames and use a fallback '??' function name instead.
While this crash was originally reported by Hadrien for rust code,
I can now also reproduce it with trivial C++ code. Indeed, it seems
like libbfd fails to interpret the debug information for the inline
frame symbol name:
$ addr2line -e /home/milian/.debug/.build-id/f7/186d14bb94f3c6161c010926da66033d24fce5/elf -if b48

I've reported this bug upstream and also attached a patch there
which should fix this issue:
