[PATCH v1 02/12] perf stat: Avoid buffer overflow to the aggregation map

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Fri Jun 27 2025 - 15:24:54 EST


CPUs may be created and passed to perf_stat__get_aggr (via
config->aggr_get_id), such as in the stat display
should_skip_zero_counter. There may be no such aggr_id, for example,
if running with a thread. Add a missing bound check and just create
IDs for these cases.
