perf_session__peek_event() generally leverages there being a single mmap
of the perf.data file, however on 32-bit platforms when there is more
that 32MiB of data, then there are multiple mmaps, so
perf_session__peek_event() reads from the file.
In that case a couple of bugs were exposed (note how the seg. fault
appears with >32M of data):
$ perf record --per-thread -e intel_bts// ../rtit-tests/loopy 1000000
[ perf record: Woken up 13 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 24.568 MB perf.data ]
$ perf script > /dev/null
$ perf record --per-thread -e intel_bts// ../rtit-tests/loopy 10000000
[ perf record: Woken up 136 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 270.794 MB perf.data ]
$ perf script > /dev/null
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The wrong address was being passed to the readn() function and the
buffer size was not being checked.
