From c056ba6a174f4d5d79fe27f259fc133041a451da Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Olsa Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2015 21:10:18 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Always bail out when config_attr function fails Not sure why we allowed the fail state, but it's wrong. Wrong type for 'name' term can cause segfault, and there's probably more fun hidden.
