perf probe: Fix a segfault if asked for variable it doesn't find
Fix a segfault bug by asking for variable it doesn't find. Since the convert_variable() didn't handle error code returned from convert_variable_location(), it just passed an incomplete variable field and then a segfault was occurred when formatting the field. This fixes that bug by handling success code correctly in convert_variable(). Other callers of convert_variable_location() are correctly checking the return code. This bug was introduced by following commit. But another hidden erroneous error handling has been there previously (-ENOMEM case). commit 3d918a12a1b3088ac16ff37fa52760639d6e2403 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Reported-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140529105232.28251.30447.stgit@ltc230.yrl.intra.hitachi.co.jp Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>
