Hm, so I pulled it (commit 1765d9b26f84), but with an old perf.data I'm getting 
this crash:

triton:~/tip/tools/perf> perf report
perf: Segmentation fault
-------- backtrace --------

perf(_start+0x29)[0x41f2d9]
[0x0]

I also re-tested 1765d9b26f84 and it still crashes.

Bisected it to:

  e1e499aba570 perf tools: Add processor socket info to hist_entry and addr_location

Running on Ubuntu, 1 socket box, 12 CPUs.

I went back to perf/core 8f3e5684d3fb and it doesn't crash anymore - so I unpulled 
your tree for now. (Will send you the perf.data privately.)

Thanks,

	Ingo
