When we introduced struct dsos, to group the two ways to store dsos, i.e. the linked list and the rbtree, we didn't turned the initialization done in: machines__init(machines->host) -> machine__init() -> INIT_LIST_HEAD into a dsos__init() to keep on initializing the list_head but _as well_ initializing the rb_root, oops. All worked because outside perf-test we probably zalloc the whole thing which ends up initializing it in to NULL. So the problem looks contained to 'perf test' that uses it on stack, etc. Reported-by: Jiri Olsa Acked-by: Waiman Long , Cc: Adrian Hunter , Cc: Don Zickus Cc: Douglas Hatch Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Paul Mackerras Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Scott J Norton Cc: Waiman Long , Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20141014180353.GF3198@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- diff --git a/tools/perf/util/machine.c b/tools/perf/util/machine.c index b7d477fbda02..34fc7c8672e4 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/machine.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/machine.c @@ -13,12 +13,18 @@ #include #include "unwind.h" +static void dsos__init(struct dsos *dsos) +{ + INIT_LIST_HEAD(&dsos->head); + dsos->root = RB_ROOT; +} + int machine__init(struct machine *machine, const char *root_dir, pid_t pid) { map_groups__init(&machine->kmaps); RB_CLEAR_NODE(&machine->rb_node); - INIT_LIST_HEAD(&machine->user_dsos.head); - INIT_LIST_HEAD(&machine->kernel_dsos.head); + dsos__init(&machine->user_dsos); + dsos__init(&machine->kernel_dsos); machine->threads = RB_ROOT; INIT_LIST_HEAD(&machine->dead_threads);
