Perf crashes as below when applying --no-group
# perf record -e "{cache-misses,branches"} -b sleep 1
# perf report --stdio --no-group
free(): invalid next size (fast)
Aborted (core dumped)
#
In the __hpp__fmt(), only 1 hpp_fmt_value is allocated for the current
event when --no-group is applied.
However, the current implementation tries to assign the hists from all
members to the hpp_fmt_value, which exceeds the allocated memory.
Fixes: 8f6071a3dc ("perf hist: Simplify __hpp_fmt() using hpp_fmt_data")

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 reStructuredText 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.
