From 14e4d7e0abfdefabea2b8796c5a8b2b9c77b5326 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" Date: Mon, 13 Feb 2017 12:11:44 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] 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 'length' 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 Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Cc: Adrian Hunter Cc: David Ahern Cc: Jiri Olsa Cc: Namhyung Kim Cc: Wang Nan Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170213121418.47f279e8@gandalf.local.home Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- tools/lib/traceevent/kbuffer-parse.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/tools/lib/traceevent/kbuffer-parse.c b/tools/lib/traceevent/kbuffer-parse.c index 65984f1c2974..c94e3641b046 100644 --- a/tools/lib/traceevent/kbuffer-parse.c +++ b/tools/lib/traceevent/kbuffer-parse.c @@ -315,6 +315,7 @@ static unsigned int old_update_pointers(struct kbuffer *kbuf) extend += delta; delta = extend; ptr += 4; + length = 0; break; case OLD_RINGBUF_TYPE_TIME_STAMP: -- 2.30.2
