Subject: [PATCH] perf stat: Reset previous counts on repeat with interval
When using 'perf stat' with repeat and interval option, it shows wrong
values for events.
The wrong values will be shown for the first interval on the second and
subsequent repetitions.
Without the fix:

prev_raw_counts is allocated when using intervals. This is used when
calculating the difference in the counts of events when using interval.
The current counts are stored in prev_raw_counts to calculate the
differences in the next iteration.
On the first interval of the second and subsequent repetitions,
prev_raw_counts would be the values stored in the last interval of the
previous repetitions, while the current counts will only be for the
first interval of the current repetition.
Hence there is a possibility of events showing up as big number.
Fix this by resetting prev_raw_counts whenever perf stat repeats the
command.

Committer notes:
This was broken since the cset introducing the --interval feature, i.e.
--repeat + --interval wasn't tested at that point, add the Fixes tag so
that automatic scripts can pick this up.

Subject: [PATCH] perf stat: Reset previous counts on repeat with interval
When using 'perf stat' with repeat and interval option, it shows wrong
values for events.
The wrong values will be shown for the first interval on the second and
subsequent repetitions.
Without the fix:
# perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5
2.000282489 53 faults
2.000282489 513 sched:sched_switch

#
prev_raw_counts is allocated when using intervals. This is used when
calculating the difference in the counts of events when using interval.
The current counts are stored in prev_raw_counts to calculate the
differences in the next iteration.
On the first interval of the second and subsequent repetitions,
prev_raw_counts would be the values stored in the last interval of the
previous repetitions, while the current counts will only be for the
first interval of the current repetition.
Hence there is a possibility of events showing up as big number.
Fix this by resetting prev_raw_counts whenever perf stat repeats the
command.
With the fix:
# perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5
2.019349347 2,597 faults

Committer notes:
This was broken since the cset introducing the --interval feature, i.e.
--repeat + --interval wasn't tested at that point, add the Fixes tag so
that automatic scripts can pick this up.

Subject: [PATCH] perf stat: Fix a segmentation fault when using repeat forever
Observe a segmentation fault when 'perf stat' is asked to repeat forever
with the interval option.
Without fix:
# perf stat -r 0 -I 5000 -e cycles -a sleep 10
# time counts unit events
5.000211692 3,13,89,82,34,157 cycles
10.000380119 1,53,98,52,22,294 cycles
10.040467280 17,16,79,265 cycles
Segmentation fault
This problem was only observed when we use forever option aka -r 0 and
works with limited repeats. Calling print_counter with ts being set to
NULL, is not a correct option when interval is set. Hence avoid
print_counter(NULL,..) if interval is set.
With fix:

Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Fix segfault in cpu_cache_level__read()
We release wrong pointer on error path in cpu_cache_level__read
function, leading to segfault:

Starting program: /root/perf/tools/perf/perf record ls
...
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
double free or corruption (out)

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner(a)redhat.com>
commit c9fbd7bbc23dbdd73364be4d045e5d3612cf6e82 upstream.
We recently had an oops reported on a 4.14 kernel in
xfs_reclaim_inodes_count() where sb->s_fs_info pointed to garbage
and so the m_perag_tree lookup walked into lala land.
Essentially, the machine was under memory pressure when the mount
was being run, xfs_fs_fill_super() failed after allocating the
xfs_mount and attaching it to sb->s_fs_info. It then cleaned up and
freed the xfs_mount, but the sb->s_fs_info field still pointed to
the freed memory. Hence when the superblock shrinker then ran
it fell off the bad pointer.
With the superblock shrinker problem fixed at teh VFS level, this
stale s_fs_info pointer is still a problem - we use it
unconditionally in ->put_super when the superblock is being torn
down, and hence we can still trip over it after a ->fill_super
call failure. Hence we need to clear s_fs_info if
xfs-fs_fill_super() fails, and we need to check if it's valid in
the places it can potentially be dereferenced after a ->fill_super
failure.
