perf regs: Make perf_reg_name() return "unknown" instead of NULL
To avoid breaking the build on arches where this is not wired up, at least all the other features should be made available and when using this specific routine, the "unknown" should point the user/developer to the need to wire this up on this particular hardware architecture. Detected in a container mipsel debian cross build environment, where it shows up as: In file included from /usr/mipsel-linux-gnu/include/stdio.h:867, from /git/linux/tools/perf/lib/include/perf/cpumap.h:6, from util/session.c:13: In function 'printf', inlined from 'regs_dump__printf' at util/session.c:1103:3, inlined from 'regs__printf' at util/session.c:1131:2: /usr/mipsel-linux-gnu/include/bits/stdio2.h:107:10: error: '%-5s' directive argument is null [-Werror=format-overflow=] 107 | return __printf_chk (__USE_FORTIFY_LEVEL - 1, __fmt, __va_arg_pack ()); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cross compiler details: mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc (Debian 9.2.1-8) 9.2.1 20190909 Also on mips64: In file included from /usr/mips64-linux-gnuabi64/include/stdio.h:867, from /git/linux/tools/perf/lib/include/perf/cpumap.h:6, from util/session.c:13: In function 'printf', inlined from 'regs_dump__printf' at util/session.c:1103:3, inlined from 'regs__printf' at util/session.c:1131:2, inlined from 'regs_user__printf' at util/session.c:1139:3, inlined from 'dump_sample' at util/session.c:1246:3, inlined from 'machines__deliver_event' at util/session.c:1421:3: /usr/mips64-linux-gnuabi64/include/bits/stdio2.h:107:10: error: '%-5s' directive argument is null [-Werror=format-overflow=] 107 | return __printf_chk (__USE_FORTIFY_LEVEL - 1, __fmt, __va_arg_pack ()); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In function 'printf', inlined from 'regs_dump__printf' at util/session.c:1103:3, inlined from 'regs__printf' at util/session.c:1131:2, inlined from 'regs_intr__printf' at util/session.c:1147:3, inlined from 'dump_sample' at util/session.c:1249:3, inlined from 'machines__deliver_event' at util/session.c:1421:3: /usr/mips64-linux-gnuabi64/include/bits/stdio2.h:107:10: error: '%-5s' directive argument is null [-Werror=format-overflow=] 107 | return __printf_chk (__USE_FORTIFY_LEVEL - 1, __fmt, __va_arg_pack ()); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ cross compiler details: mips64-linux-gnuabi64-gcc (Debian 9.2.1-8) 9.2.1 20190909 Fixes: 2bcd355b71da ("perf tools: Add interface to arch registers sets") Cc: Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-95wjyv4o65nuaeweq31t7l1s@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
