perf probe: Clear probe_trace_event when add_probe_trace_event() fails
When probing with a glob, errors in add_probe_trace_event() won't be passed to debuginfo__find_trace_events() because it would be modified by probe_point_search_cb(). It causes a segfault if perf fails to find an argument for a probe point matched by the glob. For example: # ./perf probe -v -n 'SyS_dup? oldfd' probe-definition(0): SyS_dup? oldfd symbol:SyS_dup? file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null) parsing arg: oldfd into oldfd 1 arguments Looking at the vmlinux_path (7 entries long) Using /lib/modules/4.3.0-rc4+/build/vmlinux for symbols Open Debuginfo file: /lib/modules/4.3.0-rc4+/build/vmlinux Try to find probe point from debuginfo. Matched function: SyS_dup3 found inline addr: 0xffffffff812095c0 Probe point found: SyS_dup3+0 Searching 'oldfd' variable in context. Converting variable oldfd into trace event. oldfd type is long int. found inline addr: 0xffffffff812096d4 Probe point found: SyS_dup2+36 Searching 'oldfd' variable in context. Failed to find 'oldfd' in this function. Matched function: SyS_dup3 Probe point found: SyS_dup3+0 Searching 'oldfd' variable in context. Converting variable oldfd into trace event. oldfd type is long int. Matched function: SyS_dup2 Probe point found: SyS_dup2+0 Searching 'oldfd' variable in context. Converting variable oldfd into trace event. oldfd type is long int. Found 4 probe_trace_events. Opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing//kprobe_events write=1 Writing event: p:probe/SyS_dup3 _text+2135488 oldfd=%di:s64 Segmentation fault (core dumped) # This patch ensures that add_probe_trace_event() doesn't touches tf->ntevs and tf->tevs if those functions fail. After the patch: # perf probe 'SyS_dup? oldfd' Failed to find 'oldfd' in this function. Added new events: probe:SyS_dup3 (on SyS_dup? with oldfd) probe:SyS_dup3_1 (on SyS_dup? with oldfd) probe:SyS_dup2 (on SyS_dup? with oldfd) You can now use it in all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:SyS_dup2 -aR sleep 1 Signed-off-by: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Cc: Zefan Li <lizefan@huawei.com> Cc: pi3orama@163.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1447417761-156094-3-git-send-email-wangnan0@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
