Modified the object of 'memset' from '&lost.lost' to '&lost' in record__read_lost_samples. This allows 'memset' to access memory properly without causing out-of-bounds problems. The problems got from builtin-record.c are: In file included from /usr/include/string.h:495, from util/parse-events.h:13, from builtin-record.c:14: In function 'memset', inlined from 'record__read_lost_samples' at builtin-record.c:1958:6, inlined from '__cmd_record.constprop' at builtin-record.c:2817:2: /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/string_fortified.h:71:10: error: '__builtin_memset' offset [17, 64] from the object at 'lost' is out of the bounds of referenced subobject 'lost' with type 'struct perf_record_lost_samples' at offset 0 [-Werror=array-bounds] 71|return __builtin___memset_chk (__dest,__ch,__len,__bos0 (__dest)); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The error arised when performing a memset operation on the 'lost' variable, the bytes of 'sizeof(lost)' exceeds that of '&lost.lost', which are 64 and 16.

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.
