I have this now in my tree, and since the patch is basically yours, I just made myself the reporter and you the author, please ack.
commit 1fb82b6cba967afde11957099a9ef440cf8c2248 Author: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Date: Mon Feb 13 13:18:29 2017 -0300
tools lib traceevent: Initialize lenght on OLD_RING_BUFFER_TYPE_TIME_STAMP
A undefined value was being used for the OLD_RING_BUFFER_TYPE_TIME_STAMP case entry, as the 'lenght' variable was not being initialized, fix it.
Caught by the reporter when building tools/perf/ using clang, which emmitted this warning:
kbuffer-parse.c:312:7: warning: variable 'length' is used uninitialized whenever switch case is taken [-Wsometimes-uninitialized] case OLD_RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_EXTEND: ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ kbuffer-parse.c:339:29: note: uninitialized use occurs here kbuf->next = kbuf->index + length; ^~~~~~ kbuffer-parse.c:297:21: note: initialize the variable 'length' to silence this warning unsigned int length; ^ = 0 Reported-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170210141408.5eeb6e91@gandalf.local.home Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
