Subject: [PATCH 16/20] perf buildid: Do not assume that readlink() returns a null terminated string
Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2017 22:39:11 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170328013915.15236-17-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170328013915.15236-1-acme@kernel.org>

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

Valgrind was complaining:

  [...]

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