perf probe: Fix crash in dwarf_getcfi_elf
David reported that perf can segfault when adding an uprobe event like this: $ perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.14.90.so -a 'malloc size=%di' (gdb) bt #0 parse_eh_frame_hdr (hdr=0x0, hdr_size=2596, hdr_vaddr=71788, ehdr=0x7fffffffd390, eh_frame_vaddr= 0x7fffffffd378, table_entries=0x8808d8, table_encoding=0x8808e0 "") at dwarf_getcfi_elf.c:79 #1 0x000000385f81615a in getcfi_scn_eh_frame (hdr_vaddr=71788, hdr_scn=0x8839b0, shdr=0x7fffffffd2f0, scn=<optimized out>, ehdr=0x7fffffffd390, elf=0x882b30) at dwarf_getcfi_elf.c:231 #2 getcfi_shdr (ehdr=0x7fffffffd390, elf=0x882b30) at dwarf_getcfi_elf.c:283 #3 dwarf_getcfi_elf (elf=0x882b30) at dwarf_getcfi_elf.c:309 #4 0x00000000004d5bac in debuginfo__find_probes (pf=0x7fffffffd4f0, dbg=Unhandled dwarf expression opcode 0xfa) at util/probe-finder.c:993 #5 0x00000000004d634a in debuginfo__find_trace_events (dbg=0x880840, pev=<optimized out>, tevs=0x880f88, max_tevs=<optimized out>) at util/probe-finder.c:1200 #6 0x00000000004aed6b in try_to_find_probe_trace_events (target=0x881b20 "/lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so", max_tevs=128, tevs=0x880f88, pev=0x859b30) at util/probe-event.c:482 #7 convert_to_probe_trace_events (target=0x881b20 "/lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so", max_tevs=128, tevs=0x880f88, pev=0x859b30) at util/probe-event.c:2356 #8 add_perf_probe_events (pevs=<optimized out>, npevs=1, max_tevs=128, target=0x881b20 "/lib64/libpthread-2.14.90.so", force_add=false) at util/probe-event.c:2391 #9 0x000000000044014f in __cmd_probe (argc=<optimized out>, argv=0x7fffffffe2f0, prefix=Unhandled dwarf expression opcode 0xfa) at at builtin-probe.c:488 #10 0x0000000000440313 in cmd_probe (argc=5, argv=0x7fffffffe2f0, prefix=<optimized out>) at builtin-probe.c:506 #11 0x000000000041d133 in run_builtin (p=0x805680, argc=5, argv=0x7fffffffe2f0) at perf.c:341 #12 0x000000000041c8b2 in handle_internal_command (argv=<optimized out>, argc=<optimized out>) at perf.c:400 #13 run_argv (argv=<optimized out>, argcp=<optimized out>) at perf.c:444 #14 main (argc=5, argv=0x7fffffffe2f0) at perf.c:559 And I found a related commit (5704c8c4fa71 "getcfi_scn_eh_frame: Don't crash and burn when .eh_frame bits aren't there.") in elfutils that can lead to a unexpected crash like this. To safely use the function, it needs to check the .eh_frame section is a PROGBITS type.
