libdw: Initialize filelist earlier in dwarf_getsrclines.c read_srclines.
Hi,
gcc is wrong, filelist will not be used/freed if nfilelist == 0, and filelist
will be initialized if nfilelist != 0. But this might be hard to see for the
compiler. BTW which gcc version is this, any special CFLAGS used?
Instead of moving the whole block of code around I think just explicitly
setting filelist to NULL when we initialize nfilelist = 0 should do the trick.
Could you test the slightly changed patch attached?
Also would it me OK to add a Signed-off-by: Luiz Angelo Daros de Luca

Thanks,

Mark,
It works. Gcc does not blame me anymore.
Thanks.

libdw: Initialize filelist earlier in dwarf_getsrclines.c read_srclines.
I'm getting this error with 0.172:
dwarf_getsrclines.c: In function 'read_srclines':
dwarf_getsrclines.c:1074:7: error: 'filelist' may be used uninitialized in
t
free (filelist);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It seems that gcc is right here as there is "ifs" that go to "out"
(where filelist is freed) before freelist is initialized.
