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 make sure it is initialized to NULL before returning from evsel__get_arch(), as suggested by Ian Rogers. 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; ^~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors 43 7.30 ubuntu:18.04-x-powerpc64el : FAIL gcc version 7.5.0 (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04) util/annotate.c: In function 'hist_entry__get_data_type': util/annotate.c:2351:36: error: 'arch' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] if (map__dso(ms->map)->kernel && arch__is(arch, "x86") && ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cc1: all warnings being treated as errors Suggested-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Reviewed-by: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com> Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAP-5=fUqtjxAsmdGrnkjhUTLHs-JvV10TtxyocpYDJK_+LYTiQ@mail.gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
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.
