Subject: [PATCH v1 11/13] perf python: Zero initialize perf_data in pyrf_data__init
Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2026 22:35:13 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260623053515.2677888-12-irogers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260623053515.2677888-1-irogers@google.com>
Replace path clearing with memset so the entire struct is zeroed,
preventing uninitialized fields from causing errors later.
Fixes: 4cd0142f7dec ("perf python: Add wrapper for perf_data file abstraction")
