------------------ From: Jiri Olsa <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit 4ab8455f8bd83298bf7f67ab9357e3b1cc765c7d ] John reported crash when recording on an event under PMU with cpumask defined: root@localhost:~# ./perf_debug_ record -e armv8_pmuv3_0/br_mis_pred/ sleep 1 perf: Segmentation fault Obtained 9 stack frames. ./perf_debug_() [0x4c5ef8] [0xffff82ba267c] ./perf_debug_() [0x4bc5a8] ./perf_debug_() [0x419550] ./perf_debug_() [0x41a928] ./perf_debug_() [0x472f58] ./perf_debug_() [0x473210] ./perf_debug_() [0x4070f4] /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe0) [0xffff8294c8a0] Segmentation fault (core dumped) We synthesize an update event that needs to touch the evsel id array, which is not defined at that time. Fixing this by forcing the id allocation for events with their own cpus.
