perf parse-events: Avoid SEGV if PMU lookup fails for legacy cache terms
libfuzzer found the following command could SEGV: $ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true This is because the L2 term rewrites the perf_event_attr type to PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE which then fails the PMU lookup for the second legacy cache term. The new failure is consistent with repeated hardware terms: $ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/' \___ Failed to find PMU for type 3 Initial error: event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/' \___ Failed to find PMU for type 3 Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events $ perf stat -e cpu/cycles,cycles/ true event syntax error: 'cpu/cycles,cycles/' \___ Failed to find PMU for type 0 Initial error: event syntax error: 'cpu/cycles,cycles/' \___ Failed to find PMU for type 0 Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events Committer testing: Before: $ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true Segmentation fault (core dumped) $ After: $ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/' \___ Failed to find PMU for type 3 Initial error: event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/' \___ Failed to find PMU for type 3 Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>] -e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events $ Fixes: 6fd1e5191591f9d5 ("perf parse-events: Support PMUs for legacy cache events") Signed-off-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Xing Zhengjun <zhengjun.xing@linux.intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230712065250.1450306-1-irogers@google.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
