[PATCH] tools/perf: Fix missing reference count get in call_path_from_sample

From: Ben Gainey
Date: Thu Dec 07 2023 - 09:09:40 EST


The addr_location map and maps fields in the inner loop were missing
calls to map__get/maps__get. The subsequent addr_location__exit call in
each loop puts the map/maps fields causing use-after-free aborts.

This issue reproduces on at least arm64 and x86_64 with something
simple like `perf record -g ls` followed by `perf script -s script.py`
with the following script:

perf_db_export_mode = True
perf_db_export_calls = False
perf_db_export_callchains = True

def sample_table(*args):
print(f'sample_table({args})')

def call_path_table(*args):
print(f'call_path_table({args}')
