[for-next][PATCH 2/2] ftrace: Fix uninitialized variable in match_records()

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed Jul 12 2017 - 21:08:00 EST


From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx>

My static checker complains that if "func" is NULL then "clear_filter"
is uninitialized. This seems like it could be true, although it's
possible something subtle is happening that I haven't seen.

kernel/trace/ftrace.c:3844 match_records()
error: uninitialized symbol 'clear_filter'.
