Subject: Re: [PATCH] perf top: fix crash on annotate request



Getting another crash with the default sym sorting -- the addr is much
less than the start of the sym so the offset goes negative:

The following fixes the crash. If it seems reasonable I'll add to the
other one:

diff --git a/tools/perf/util/annotate.c b/tools/perf/util/annotate.c
index bc8f477..f1f20b5 100644
--- a/tools/perf/util/annotate.c

    pr_debug3("%s: addr=%#" PRIx64 "\n", __func__, map->unmap_ip(map,
addr));
+   if (addr < sym->start)
+       return 0;

    if (addr >= sym->end)
        return 0;


I'll combine
