synthesis
Modify bounds and union member access in mmap2 build_id synthesis. Bound
max_filename_len against the minimum of filename array capacity and the
outer union stack layout minus sample ID trailers. This prevents both
-E2BIG overruns and _FORTIFY_SOURCE array bounds aborts on strlcpy even
if the enclosing union expands.

module synthesis
Clamp long DSO names to mmap/mmap2 filename boundaries accounting for
sample ID headers to prevent buffer overruns in
perf_event__synthesize_modules_maps_cb(). Explicitly clear misc flags and
union padding to prevent stale Build-ID state from leaking between module
synthesis events, and cast event buffer pointers to avoid _FORTIFY_SOURCE
array bounds aborts when zeroing padding trailers.

Fix a pre-existing stack buffer overflow bug in
perf_event__synthesize_cgroup() where an in-place null padding loop wrote
bytes past the end of the cgrp_root stack array buffer during cgroup tree
traversal. Eliminate in-place path mutation, use PERF_ALIGN for path_len,
clamp raw_path_len to prevent sample ID header trailer overruns, and use
strlcpy with combined zero padding for alignment and sample ID headers.

in proc maps reader
Fix critical logic and boundary bugs in read_proc_maps_line() and caller.
Ensure any mid-line hex/dec/char parsing failure invokes io__drain_line()
safely, using a do-while loop to read and discard remaining characters
until a newline or EOF is reached. Clamp pathname extraction size to
account for trailing sample ID headers, use standard '//toolong' fallback
literal for over-length pathnames, emit timeout flags for truncated entries
securely via goto out;, and cast event buffer pointers to avoid
_FORTIFY_SOURCE array bounds aborts across synthesis handlers.

skip() ignores do_read()'s return value and unconditionally
subtracts the requested chunk size from 'size' on every iteration.
This was previously bounded by size being 'int': a maliciously
large 64-bit value was truncated on assignment, capping the loop
early by accident.
Now that size is size_t, a crafted file supplying a very large
size causes skip() to keep requesting BUFSIZ-sized reads and
subtracting BUFSIZ from size regardless of whether do_read()
actually succeeds, spinning indefinitely even after EOF or a read
error.
Check do_read()'s return value and break out of the loop on
failure or EOF, so forward progress is only counted when a read
actually succeeds.

read_ftrace_printk()/read_saved_cmdline()
Both functions read an attacker-controlled size directly from the
input file and pass size + 1 to malloc() before reading size bytes
into the result:
read_ftrace_printk(): size is an unsigned int from read4(). When
size == UINT_MAX, size + 1 overflows to 0, so malloc(0) returns a
minimal allocation while size itself remains UINT_MAX.
read_saved_cmdline(): size is an unsigned long long from read8().
When size == ULLONG_MAX, size + 1 overflows to 0 the same way.
In both cases, do_read(buf, size) then attempts to read the full,
unwrapped size into the tiny allocated buffer, a heap buffer
overflow.
This was previously masked by do_read()'s size parameter being
'int': passing these values truncated them, which the read()
syscall's own boundary checks rejected before any data was read.
Fixing that truncation (widening do_read() to size_t) is correct
on its own, but it removes this accidental protection and exposes
the pre-existing missing bounds check in both functions.
Reject the one value that causes the overflow before it's used, in
each function.

trace_event__cleanup()/trace_event__init()
trace_event__cleanup() frees t->pevent but never clears the
pointer. It can be called twice on the same trace_event: once
from trace_report()'s error path, and again from
perf_session__delete() during session teardown, resulting in a
double free / use-after-free.
Separately, trace_event__init() overwrites t->pevent/t->plugin_list
without releasing any existing handle, leaking memory if it's
called more than once on the same struct. eg. via a perf.data
file with multiple PERF_RECORD_HEADER_TRACING_DATA headers.
Guard against re-entry by returning early if t->pevent is already
NULL, and clear it after cleanup so a repeat call is a safe no-op.
Call trace_event__cleanup() at the start of trace_event__init(),
so a repeated init releases any existing handle before allocating
a new one.

The do_read() and skip() functions use 'int' for size parameters,
truncating 64-bit sizes from callers. This causes two issues:
1. Uninitialized memory dump: do_read() reads fewer bytes than
allocated, leaving uninitialized heap memory that gets written
to output files.
2. Out-of-bounds read: Parsing functions process the full 64-bit
size while only partial data was read into the buffer.
Change do_read(), __do_read(), and skip() to use size_t for size
parameters and ssize_t for return values (where applicable), matching
read()/write() system calls.
Update callers to use ssize_t for storing return values.

c2c_hists__reinit() failure
When c2c_hists__init() or c2c_hists__reinit() calls hpp_list__parse()
and it fails partway through, format structures registered via
perf_hpp_list__column_register() and perf_hpp_list__register_sort_field()
are left on the hpp_list.
In c2c_hists__init(), only one of the callers, c2c_he__alloc_hists(),
handled this with perf_hpp__reset_output_field(), while perf_c2c_report()
did not, leaking the partially registered entries.
In c2c_hists__reinit(), neither perf_c2c_report() nor resort_cl_cb()
clean up on failure.
Fix by adding cleanup inside both functions themselves, so all callers
are protected, and remove the now redundant reset in c2c_he__alloc_hists().

hpp_list__parse()
hpp_list__parse() has three bugs:
1. The PARSE_LIST macro resets ret = 0 at the start of each invocation,
so an error from output parsing is silently overwritten when the sort
parsing block runs. The function returns success with partially
initialized state.
2. When the caller passes a non-NULL output_ or sort_ string, but
strdup() returns NULL due to OOM, NULL is passed to PARSE_LIST which
treats it as empty input (the "if (!_list) break" branch). No error
is returned.
3. When the called _fn function fails and returns something other than
-ESRCH or -EINVAL (-ENOMEM, for instance) it was not bailing out of
the strtok loop.
Fix them by checking strdup() return values before proceeding and adding
a cleanup label so that ret from each PARSE_LIST call is checked before
the next runs, preserving the first error.
The early exits now skip perf_hpp__setup_output_field(), which means
c2c_hists__reinit() can return a non-zero value in cases that previously
always succeeded silently. Both callers discarded its return:
resort_cl_cb() continued into hists__collapse_resort() on a broken list,
and perf_c2c__report() proceeded with uninitialised hists. Fix the full
chain: check and propagate the error in resort_cl_cb() -- hists__iterate_cb()
already stops iteration and returns the callback error -- and check both
c2c_hists__reinit() and hists__iterate_cb() in perf_c2c__report().
Also turn PARSE_LIST into a function, using a switch to catch other
errors, converting the called functions to return an appropriate errno
instead of -1 on failure.
Also make the two callers that iterate sort_dimension__add() and
output_field_add() handle the newly propagated errors: setup_sort_list()
and setup_output_list() only checked for -EINVAL and -ESRCH, so an
-ENOMEM from a failed allocation was silently overwritten by the next
loop iteration. Break out of the loop and propagate any other error.
The hpp_list__parse() fixes were developed with AI assistance from
Claude:claude-sonnet-4.6, and the setup_sort_list()/setup_output_list()
caller fixes with AI assistance from Opencode:mimo-v2.5-free and

symbol__disassemble_bpf_libbfd() has four resource management bugs:
1. free(prog_linfo) leaks internal arrays. bpf_prog_linfo contains
raw_linfo, raw_jited_linfo, nr_jited_linfo_per_func, and
jited_linfo_func_idx pointers that are only freed by the proper
destructor bpf_prog_linfo__free().
2. open_memstream(&buf, &buf_size) allocates a dynamic buffer that the
caller must free after fclose(). The function calls fclose(s) but
never free(buf), leaking the stream buffer on every call.
3. args->line = strdup(srcline) is immediately consumed by
disasm_line__new(args) which internally calls strdup(args->line)
again via annotation_line__init(). The first strdup result is then
overwritten by args->line = buf + prev_buf_size without being freed.
4. If open_memstream() fails, the error path jumps to 'out:' which
calls fclose(s) with s == NULL — undefined behavior.
Fix by using bpf_prog_linfo__free(), initializing buf to NULL, adding
free(buf) after fclose(s), guarding fclose() against NULL, and removing
the redundant strdup since annotation_line__init() makes its own copy.

synthesize_bpf_prog_name() unconditionally dereferences prog_tags[sub_id]

contains either zero or a raw file offset. Dereferencing it causes a
NULL pointer dereference or an arbitrary memory read.

Currently, when a probe event is added using perf probe --add with a
hexadecimal type cast (e.g., var:x64 and var:x32), the kernel traceprobe
subsystem sets the field type to "u64" in the event's format file, yet
generates a print format specifier of "var=0x%Lx" or "0x%x".
By default, perf trace uses its internal beautifiers which only inspect
field->type and field->flags. Because traceprobe events declare
primitive integer field types ("u64") without a C pointer asterisk
(i.e., "*"), perf trace defaults to printing the field's value as a
decimal unsigned long ("%ld"), ignoring the hexadecimal intent.
Introduce field_has_hex_fmt() to inspect the tracepoint's print_fmt
format string. If a field's print format assignment uses hexadecimal
specifiers (i.e., "=0x", "=%#", or "=%p"), assign SCA_PTR formatting so
perf trace displays the value in hexadecimal by default without
requiring --libtraceevent. For example:
❯ sudo ./perf probe --add 'enqueue_task_fair rq=rq:x64 p=p:x64 flags=flags:x32'
Added new event:
probe:enqueue_task_fair (on enqueue_task_fair with rq=rq:x64 p=p:x64 flags=flags:x32)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:enqueue_task_fair -aR sleep 1
❯ sudo ./perf trace --show-cpu --event probe:enqueue_task_fair --max-event 3
0.000 [000] :0/0 probe:enqueue_task_fair(rq: 0xffff8ac632233180, p: 0xffff8ac2c1240000, flags: 0x100009)

machines__create_guest_kernel_maps() checks errno == ERANGE after
strtol() to detect overflow, but does not clear errno first. A stale
ERANGE from an earlier library call (e.g. scandir internals) causes
valid numeric directory names to be incorrectly skipped.
Set errno = 0 before strtol() so only the current conversion can
trigger the ERANGE check.

machines__create_guest_kernel_maps() jumps to the failure label when one
guest directory's kallsyms file fails access(), skipping all remaining
valid guest directories. An inaccessible directory is not fatal — other

If strlist__new() fails (OOM), 'seen' stays NULL and the next call

Fix pre-existing robustness issues in the hisi-ptt auxtrace decoder
reported by Sashiko:
1. Endianness in hisi_ptt_check_packet_type(): The first 32-bit word was
read with a host-endian memory cast (*(uint32_t *)buf). On big-endian
hosts analyzing a little-endian trace, the bit[31:11] 8DW magic check
fails and every 8DW packet is misclassified as 4DW. Read the header
with get_unaligned_le32().
2. Heap out-of-bounds read: hisi_ptt_dump() called
hisi_ptt_check_packet_type() which dereferenced 4 bytes of the buffer
without any size check. A malformed or truncated event with
auxtrace.size in {0,1,2,3} may cause a heap OOB read. Pass the buffer
length to hisi_ptt_check_packet_type() and return (defaulting to
4DW) when the buffer is shorter than HISI_PTT_FIELD_LENTH.
3. Integer truncation: event->auxtrace.size is __u64 but was stored in
an int. Traces larger than 2GB became negative (malloc failure), and
huge sizes wrapping to a small positive caused a short readn() that
left unread payload in the pipe and permanently desynchronized the
stream. Use u64 for the size, reject anything larger than SSIZE_MAX
before malloc (same bound used by auxtrace_copy_data()), and compare
readn()'s return value against (ssize_t)size to detect truncation.

TLP Headers traced by HiSilicon PCIe tune and trace device (PTT) in
4DW format are shown in the document as below:
bits [31:30] [ 29:25 ][24][23][22][21][ 20:11 ][ 10:0 ]
|-----|---------|---|---|---|---|-------------|-------------|
DW0 [ Fmt ][ Type ][T9][T8][TH][SO][ Length ][ Time ]
DW1 [ Header DW1 ]
DW2 [ Header DW2 ]
DW3 [ Header DW3 ]
Problem:
The DW0 bit field layout of the hisi_ptt_4dw union does not match the
actual bit ordering in little-endian memory, causing incorrect field
decoding.
Test on Kunpeng 930 SOC, generating data flow with `iperf` commands:
- server side:
iperf -s
- client side:
iperf -c $ip_addr -t 30
Trace the TLP headers with hisi_ptt on server side at the same time:
perf record -e hisi_ptt12_0/type=4,filter=0x05101,direction=2,format=0/ \
--max-size 50M -o perf.data &
The trace aims to capture completion TLPs, learn more in the document:
https://docs.kernel.org/trace/hisi-ptt.html
Decode perf.data with hisi_ptt decoder:
perf report -D
The hisi_ptt decoder produces the following result:
[...perf headers and other information]
. ... HISI PTT data: size 8388608 bytes
. 00000000: 68 87 20 94 Format 3 Type 1a T9 0 T8 1 TH 1 SO 1 Length 10 Time 4a1
. 00000004: 40 00 00 00 Header DW1
. 00000008: 40 00 01 51 Header DW2
. 0000000c: 00 00 00 00 Header DW3
[...other hisi_ptt TLP headers]
According to PCIe r5.0 sec 2.2.1, the Fmt & Type of Cpl/CplD is supposed
to be 8b'00001010' / 8b'01001010'
However, the Format & Type decoder analyzing result is 8b'01111010'.
It does not match field encodings of any TLP.
Correct decoder result should be:
[...perf headers and other information]
. ... HISI PTT data: size 8388608 bytes
. 00000000: 94 20 87 68 Format 2 Type a T9 0 T8 0 TH 0 SO 1 Length 10 Time 768
. 00000004: 00 00 00 40 Header DW1
. 00000008: 51 01 00 40 Header DW2
. 0000000c: 00 00 00 00 Header DW3
[...other hisi_ptt TLP headers]
To solve the problem:
1. Drop the union and C bitfield struct, store the raw DW value in
a plain uint32_t, and extract the fields with FIELD_GET() against
GENMASK/BIT masks declared in the header so they can be reused by
other translation units. The masks are portable across endianness and
compilers.
2. Print all DW hex values in big-endian byte order for readability,
matching the bit field layout shown in the 4DW format diagram.
3. Read the DW value with get_unaligned_le32() instead of an unaligned
pointer cast, avoiding both strict-aliasing violations and
alignment hazards on hosts that do not support unaligned access.

cu_walk_functions_at() calls libdw_a2l_cb() with the containing
DW_TAG_subprogram DIE first, then each DW_TAG_inlined_subroutine
nested inside. The callback treated both the same way, causing two
bugs:
1) die_name() returns the unqualified DW_AT_name, so every C++
frame lost its namespace/class prefix (ns::Class::method
collapsed to method).
2) new_inline_sym() re-uses base_sym only when funcname matches
base_sym->name exactly; otherwise it fabricates a fake symbol
tagged "(inlined)". Any mismatch between the DWARF name and
the ELF symbol name mis-tags an outer, non-inline frame as
inlined. This hits C++ (die_name()'s unqualified output never
matches the demangled ELF symbol) and it also hits C functions
that GCC IPA-cloned (foo vs foo.isra.0 / .constprop / .part /
.cold), since DW_AT_linkage_name doesn't reflect those renames.
Fix both:
* Prefer die_get_linkage_name() (mangled, fully qualified),
falling back to die_name() when absent (C, extern "C").
new_inline_sym() already demangles via dso__demangle_sym().
* For DW_TAG_subprogram DIEs, use base_sym directly -- the DIE
tag already tells us it is the outer function, sidestepping
the name comparison entirely for both C++ qualification and
GCC IPA-clone renames.

The libdw callback API has two levels: dwfl_getthread_frames() first finds
the requested thread using the next_thread() or get_thread() callback and
then walks its stack.
Since perf only has a snapshot of the stack of a single thread, it
provides a stubbed-out API that always returns the pid the Dwfl was
attached with (i.e. whatever was passed to dwfl_attach_state()), rather
than the actual sampled thread's TID.
Commit 6b2658b3f36a ("perf unwind-libdw: Don't discard loaded ELF/DWARF
after every unwind") changed libdw unwinding from recreating the Dwfl
object for each sample to caching it in struct maps, which is shared by
every thread in the process. It left next_thread() unchanged.
Since the pid passed to dwfl_attach_state() is only set at creation, only
the thread of the first sample is ever found. As a result,
dwfl_getthread_frames() fails with ESRCH when asked to unwind a sample
from another thread.
Make next_thread() return the current sample's TID, provide get_thread()
so libdw can find it directly, and pass the process PID expected by
dwfl_attach_state(). This allows libdw to unwind samples from every thread
in a multi-threaded process.
Add a shell regression test that records a four-thread workload and
verifies that libdw recovers the worker callchain for every worker TID.

If a thread isn't given to map_symbol__get_arch(), try harder to determine
the arch for disassembly. Do this by utilizing fallback paths such as
reading the e_machine from a map's DSO ELF header for user-space libraries.
Additionally, rely on map__kmaps() and maps__machine() to reliably extract
the recorded machine environment and e_machine for kernel and kallsyms maps,
perfectly preventing silent, incorrect host fallbacks to uname() during
cross-platform Capstone annotation sessions.
At the same time, ensure all remaining uses of a map_symbol's thread pointer
do not assume it is non-NULL to eliminate UI segmentation faults, and remove
the fragile, redundant thread__get_arch() function to streamline the
annotate and disassembly subsystem architecture.

In hists_browser__zoom_map(), the active dso is assigned as a raw
pointer to hists->dso_filter without acquiring a reference using
dso__get(). This creates a potential use-after-free defect if the
underlying dso is released while the filter remains active.
Fix it by properly acquiring a reference via dso__get() when assigning
the filter, and releasing it with dso__put() when clearing it.
Additionally, since the browser stack relies on pstack__new() and deletes
it completely upon exiting, we must fully reset the persistent hists
structure by un-eliding columns and recalculating histogram filter
states for dso, thread, and symbols upon exit to guarantee immaculate,
uncorrupted state across browser tab switching.
