perf/x86/intel: Disallow precise_ip on BTS events
commit 472de49fdc53365c880ab81ae2b5cfdd83db0b06 upstream. Vince reported a crash in the BTS flush code when touching the callchain data, which was supposed to be initialized as an 'early' callchain, but intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer() does not do that: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 ... Call Trace: <IRQ> intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer+0x151/0x220 ? intel_get_event_constraints+0x219/0x360 ? perf_assign_events+0xe2/0x2a0 ? select_idle_sibling+0x22/0x3a0 ? __update_load_avg_se+0x1ec/0x270 ? enqueue_task_fair+0x377/0xdd0 ? cpumask_next_and+0x19/0x20 ? load_balance+0x134/0x950 ? check_preempt_curr+0x7a/0x90 ? ttwu_do_wakeup+0x19/0x140 x86_pmu_stop+0x3b/0x90 x86_pmu_del+0x57/0x160 event_sched_out.isra.106+0x81/0x170 group_sched_out.part.108+0x51/0xc0 __perf_event_disable+0x7f/0x160 event_function+0x8c/0xd0 remote_function+0x3c/0x50 flush_smp_call_function_queue+0x35/0xe0 smp_call_function_single_interrupt+0x3a/0xd0 call_function_single_interrupt+0xf/0x20 </IRQ> It was triggered by fuzzer but can be easily reproduced by: # perf record -e cpu/branch-instructions/pu -g -c 1 Peter suggested not to allow branch tracing for precise events: > Now arguably, this is really stupid behaviour.
