perf tools: Fix a problem when opening old perf.data with different byte order
Following error occurs when trying to use 'perf report' on x86_64 to cross analysis a perf.data generated by an old perf on a big-endian machine: # perf report *** Error in `/home/w00229757/perf': free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x00000000032c99f0 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x6eeef)[0x7ff6ff7e2eef] /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x78cae)[0x7ff6ff7eccae] /lib64/libc.so.6(+0x79987)[0x7ff6ff7ed987] /path/to/perf[0x4ac734] /path/to/perf[0x4ac829] /path/to/perf(perf_header__process_sections+0x129)[0x4ad2c9] /path/to/perf(perf_session__read_header+0x2e1)[0x4ad9e1] /path/to/perf(perf_session__new+0x168)[0x4bd458] /path/to/perf(cmd_report+0xfa0)[0x43eb70] /path/to/perf[0x47adc3] /path/to/perf(main+0x5f6)[0x42fd06] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xf5)[0x7ff6ff795bd5] /path/to/perf[0x42fe35] ======= Memory map: ======== [SNIP] The bug is in perf_event__attr_swap(). It swaps all fields in 'struct perf_event_attr' without checking whether the swapped field exist or not. In addition, in read_event_desc() allocs memory for attr according to size read from perf.data. Therefore, if the perf.data is collected by an old perf (without aux_watermark, for example), when perf_event__attr_swap() swaping attr->aux_watermark it destroy malloc's metadata. This patch introduces boundary checking in perf_event__attr_swap(). It adds macros bswap_field_64 and bswap_field_32 into perf_event__attr_swap() to make it only swap exist fields.
