Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.3 04/89] perf tests: Avoid raising SEGV using an obvious NULL dereference
Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2019 18:01:59 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191018220324.8165-4-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191018220324.8165-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>

[ Upstream commit e3e2cf3d5b1fe800b032e14c0fdcd9a6fb20cf3b ]

An optimized build such as:

  make -C tools/perf CLANG=1 CC=clang EXTRA_CFLAGS="-O3

will turn the dereference operation into a ud2 instruction, raising a
SIGILL rather than a SIGSEGV. Use raise(..) for correctness and clarity.

Similar issues were addressed in Numfor Mbiziwo-Tiapo's patch:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/8/1234

Committer testing:

Before:

  [root@quaco ~]# perf test hooks
  55: perf hooks                                            : Ok
  [root@quaco ~]# perf test -v hooks
  55: perf hooks                                            :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 17092
  SIGSEGV is observed as expected, try to recover.
  Fatal error (SEGFAULT) in perf hook 'test'
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  perf hooks: Ok
  [root@quaco ~]#

After:

  [root@quaco ~]# perf test hooks
  55: perf hooks                                            : Ok
  [root@quaco ~]# perf test -v hooks
  55: perf hooks                                            :
  --- start ---
  test child forked, pid 17909
  SIGSEGV is observed as expected, try to recover.
  Fatal error (SEGFAULT) in perf hook 'test'
  test child finished with 0
  ---- end ----
  perf hooks: Ok
  [root@quaco ~]#
