[PATCH 1/2] perf inject: Fix segfault due to close without open

From: Adrian Hunter
Date: Mon Dec 13 2021 - 03:49:15 EST


The fixed commit attempts to close inject.output even if it was never
opened e.g.

$ perf record uname
Linux
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
$ perf inject -i perf.data --vm-time-correlation=dry-run
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
$ gdb --quiet perf
Reading symbols from perf...
(gdb) r inject -i perf.data --vm-time-correlation=dry-run
