Subject[PATCH 4.9 069/241] perf buildid: Do not assume that readlink() returns a null terminated string
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tommi Rantala <tommi.t.rantala@nokia.com>


[ Upstream commit 5a2342111c68e623e27ee7ea3d0492d8dad6bda0 ]

Valgrind was complaining:

[...]

Additionally, a zero length result from readlink() is not very interesting.
