Subject: Re: [PATCH] perf trace: avoid garbage when not printing an trace
event's arguments
Hello Benjamin,
It does not build on my system due to this warning:
builtin-trace.c: In function ‘trace__fprintf_tp_fields’:
builtin-trace.c:3090:35: error: field precision specifier ‘.*’ expects
argument of type ‘int’, but argument 3 has type ‘size_t’ {aka ‘long
unsigned int’} [-Werror=format=]
3090 | fprintf(trace->output, "%.*s", printed, bf);
| ~~^~ ~~~~~~~
| | |
| int size_t {aka long unsigned int}
Thanks,
Howard
