Commit 2d4f27999b88 ("perf data: Add global path holder") missed path
conversion in tests/topology.c, causing the "Session topology" testcase
to "hang" (waits forever for input from stdin) when doing "ssh $VM perf
test".
Can be reproduced by running "cat | perf test topo", and crashed by
replacing cat with true:
$ true | perf test -v topo
40: Session topology :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 3638
templ file: /tmp/perf-test-QPvAch
incompatible file format
incompatible file format (rerun with -v to learn more)
free(): invalid pointer
test child interrupted
---- end ----
Session topology: FAILED!
Committer testing:
Reproduced the above result before the patch and after it is back
working:
# true | perf test -v topo
41: Session topology :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 19374

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
