From 8e50d384cc1d5afd2989cf0f7093756ed7164eb2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zhouyi Zhou Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2013 15:43:33 +0800 Subject: perf tools: Fixup mmap event consumption The tail position of the event buffer should only be modified after actually use that event. If not the event buffer could be invalid before use, and segment fault occurs when invoking perf top -G.
