perf session: Fix infinite loop in __perf_session__process_events
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In this if statement:

        if (head + event->header.size >= mmap_size) {
                if (mmaps[map_idx]) {
                        munmap(mmaps[map_idx], mmap_size);
                        mmaps[map_idx] = NULL;
                }

                page_offset = page_size * (head / page_size);
                file_offset += page_offset;
                head -= page_offset;
                goto remap;
        }

With, for instance, these values:

head=2992
event->header.size=48
mmap_size=3040

We end up endlessly looping back to remap. Off by one.

Problem introduced in 55b4462.
