Subject: [PATCH] perf: Align cpu map events properly.
Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2018 22:46:55 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181011.224655.716771175766946817.davem@davemloft.net> (raw)
The size of the resulting cpu map can be smaller than a multiple
of sizeof(u64), resulting in SIGBUS on cpus like Sparc as the
next event will not be aligned properly.
Fixes: 6c872901af07 ("perf cpu_map: Add cpu_map event synthesize function")
