[ Upstream commitbb1835a3b8] Avoid termination of trace loading in case the last record in the decompressed buffer partly resides in the following mmaped PERF_RECORD_COMPRESSED record. In this case NULL value returned by fetch_mmaped_event() means to proceed to the next mmaped record then decompress it and load compressed events. The issue can be reproduced like this: $ perf record -z -- some_long_running_workload $ perf report --stdio -vv decomp (B): 44519 to 163000 decomp (B): 48119 to 174800 decomp (B): 65527 to 131072 fetch_mmaped_event: head=0x1ffe0 event->header_size=0x28, mmap_size=0x20000: fuzzed perf.data? Error: failed to process sample ...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
