perf lock contention: fix segfault in `lock contention -b/--use-bpf`
When run on a kernel without BTF info, perf crashes: libbpf: kernel BTF is missing at '/sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux', was CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF enabled? libbpf: failed to find valid kernel BTF Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00005555556915b7 in btf.type_cnt () (gdb) bt #0 0x00005555556915b7 in btf.type_cnt () #1 0x0000555555691fbc in btf_find_by_name_kind () #2 0x00005555556920d0 in btf.find_by_name_kind () #3 0x00005555558a1b7c in init_numa_data (con=0x7fffffffd0a0) at util/bpf_lock_contention.c:125 #4 0x00005555558a264b in lock_contention_prepare (con=0x7fffffffd0a0) at util/bpf_lock_contention.c:313 #5 0x0000555555620702 in __cmd_contention (argc=0, argv=0x7fffffffea10) at builtin-lock.c:2084 #6 0x0000555555622c8d in cmd_lock (argc=0, argv=0x7fffffffea10) at builtin-lock.c:2755 #7 0x0000555555651451 in run_builtin (p=0x555556104f00 <commands+576>, argc=3, argv=0x7fffffffea10) at perf.c:349 #8 0x00005555556516ed in handle_internal_command (argc=3, argv=0x7fffffffea10) at perf.c:401 #9 0x000055555565184e in run_argv (argcp=0x7fffffffe7fc, argv=0x7fffffffe7f0) at perf.c:445 #10 0x0000555555651b9f in main (argc=3, argv=0x7fffffffea10) at perf.c:553 Check if btf loading failed, and don't do anything with it in init_numa_data().
