From ead1a57457c0324a167f3f9e3a70e26c2d75fb12 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Colin Ian King Date: Mon, 3 Oct 2016 11:34:31 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf probe: Check if *ptr2 is zero and not ptr2 Static anaylsis with cppcheck[1] detected an incorrect comparison: [tools/perf/util/probe-event.c:216]: (warning) Char literal compared with pointer 'ptr2'. Did you intend to dereference it? Dereference ptr2 for the comparison to fix this. 1: https://sourceforge.net/p/cppcheck/wiki/Home/ Signed-off-by: Colin King Cc: Alexander Shishkin Cc: Masami Hiramatsu Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Ravi Bangoria Cc: Wang Nan Fixes: 35726d3a4ca9 ("perf probe: Fix to cut off incompatible chars from group name") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161003103431.18534-1-colin.king@canonical.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo --- tools/perf/util/probe-event.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/tools/perf/util/probe-event.c b/tools/perf/util/probe-event.c index fcfbef07b92d..d281ae2b54e8 100644 --- a/tools/perf/util/probe-event.c +++ b/tools/perf/util/probe-event.c @@ -213,7 +213,7 @@ static int convert_exec_to_group(const char *exec, char **result) goto out; } - for (ptr2 = ptr1; ptr2 != '\0'; ptr2++) { + for (ptr2 = ptr1; *ptr2 != '\0'; ptr2++) { if (!isalnum(*ptr2) && *ptr2 != '_') { *ptr2 = '\0'; break; -- 2.20.1
