perf_counter: Fix double list iteration in per task precise stats
Brice Goglin reported this crash with per task precise stats: > I finally managed to test the threaded perfcounter statistics (thanks a > lot for implementing it). I am running 2.6.31-rc5 (with the AMD > magny-cours patches but I don't think they matter here). I am trying to > measure local/remote memory accesses per thread during the well-known > stream benchmark. It's compiled with OpenMP using 16 threads on a > quad-socket quad-core barcelona machine. > > Command line is: > /mnt/scratch/bgoglin/cpunode/linux-2.6.31/tools/perf/perf record -f -s > -e r1000001e0 -e r1000002e0 -e r1000004e0 -e r1000008e0 ./stream > > It seems to work fine with a single -e <counter> on the command line > while it crashes when there are at least 2 of them. > It seems to work fine without -s as well. A silly copy-paste resulted in a messed up iteration which would cause the OOPS.
