[PATCH 3/9] perf annotate: Fix sizeof_sym_hist overflow issue

Show all headers | View raw

The annotated_source::sizeof_sym_hist could easily overflow
int size, resulting in crash in __symbol__inc_addr_samples.

Changing its type int size_t as was probably intended from
beginning based on initialization code in symbol__alloc_hist.
