perf intel-pt: Fix 'CPU too large' error
commit 5501e9229a80d95a1ea68609f44c447a75d23ed5 upstream. In some cases, the number of cpus (nr_cpus_online) is confused with the maximum cpu number (nr_cpus_avail), which results in the error in the example below: Example on system with 8 cpus: Before: # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online # ./perf record --kcore -e intel_pt// taskset --cpu-list 7 uname Linux [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.147 MB perf.data ] # ./perf script --itrace=e Requested CPU 7 too large. Consider raising MAX_NR_CPUS 0x25908 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68 [Invalid argument] After: # ./perf script --itrace=e # Fixes: 8c7274691f0d ("perf machine: Replace MAX_NR_CPUS with perf_env::nr_cpus_online") Fixes: 7df4e36a4785 ("perf session: Replace MAX_NR_CPUS with perf_env::nr_cpus_online") Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Tested-by: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210107174159.24897-1-adrian.hunter@intel.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
