From 22d4621987faf651fee92c532a3eaba9a0e31ba0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Thu, 6 Jun 2019 10:56:55 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf config: Bail out when a handler returns failure for a key-value pair So perf_config() uses: int ret = 0; perf_config_set__for_each_entry(config_set, section, item) { ... ret = fn(); if (ret < 0) break; } return ret; Expecting that that break will imediatelly go to function exit to return that error value (ret). The problem is that perf_config_set__for_each_entry() expands into two nested for() loops, one traversing the sections in a config and the second the items in each of those sections, so we have to change that 'break' to a goto label right before that final 'return ret'. With that, for instance 'perf trace' now correctly bails out when a event that is requested to be added via its 'trace.add_events' ~/.perfconfig entry gets rejected by the kernel BPF verifier: # perf trace ls event syntax error: '/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o' \___ Kernel verifier blocks program loading (add -v to see detail) Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Error: wrong config key-value pair trace.add_events=/home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o # While before it would continue and explode later, when trying to find maps that would have been in place had that augmented_raw_syscalls.o precompiled BPF proggie been accepted by the, humm, bast... rigorous kernel BPF verifier 8-) Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Alexei Starovoitov Cc: Daniel Borkmann Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Martin KaFai Lau Cc: Mathieu Poirier Cc: Mike Leach Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Song Liu Cc: Suzuki Poulouse Cc: Taeung Song Cc: Yonghong Song Fixes: 8a0a9c7e9146 ("perf config: Introduce new init() and exit()") Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-qvqxfk9d0rn1l7lcntwiezrr@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- tools/perf/util/config.c | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/util/config.c b/tools/perf/util/config.c index 7e3c1b60120c..e7d2c08d263a 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/config.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/config.c @@ -739,11 +739,15 @@ int perf_config(config_fn_t fn, void *data) if (ret < 0) { pr_err("Error: wrong config key-value pair %s=%s\n", key, value); - break; + /* + * Can't be just a 'break', as perf_config_set__for_each_entry() + * expands to two nested for() loops. + */ + goto out; } } } - +out: return ret; }
