[PATCH 1/1] perf annotate: Initialize 'arch' variable not to trip some -Werror=maybe-uninitialized
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Wed Apr 03 2024 - 11:20:54 EST
In some older distros the build is failing due to
-Werror=maybe-uninitialized, in this case we know that this isn't the
case because 'arch' gets initialized by evsel__get_arch(), so just init
it to NULL to silence those cases.
E.g.:
32 17.12 opensuse:15.5 : FAIL gcc version 7.5.0 (SUSE Linux)
util/annotate.c: In function 'hist_entry__get_data_type':
util/annotate.c:2269:15: error: 'arch' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
struct arch *arch;
^~~~
