perf intel-pt: Fix segfault tracing transactions
Tracing a workload that uses transactions gave a seg fault as follows: perf record -e intel_pt// workload perf report Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x000000000054b58c in intel_pt_reset_last_branch_rb (ptq=0x1a36110) at util/intel-pt.c:929 929 ptq->last_branch_rb->nr = 0; (gdb) p ptq->last_branch_rb $1 = (struct branch_stack *) 0x0 (gdb) up 1148 intel_pt_reset_last_branch_rb(ptq); (gdb) l 1143 if (ret) 1144 pr_err("Intel Processor Trace: failed to deliver transaction event 1145 ret); 1146 1147 if (pt->synth_opts.callchain) 1148 intel_pt_reset_last_branch_rb(ptq); 1149 1150 return ret; 1151 } 1152 (gdb) p pt->synth_opts.callchain $2 = true (gdb) (gdb) bt #0 0x000000000054b58c in intel_pt_reset_last_branch_rb (ptq=0x1a36110) #1 0x000000000054c1e0 in intel_pt_synth_transaction_sample (ptq=0x1a36110) #2 0x000000000054c5b2 in intel_pt_sample (ptq=0x1a36110) Caused by checking the 'callchain' flag when it should have been the 'last_branch' flag. Fix that.
