perf buildid-cache: Zero out buffer of filenames when adding/removing buildid
The readlink() function doesn't append a null byte to buf. So we should zero out buf with zalloc(). Or we'll see sometimes error like this: [root@intel-s3e36-01]~# /usr/bin/perf buildid-cache -a /lib/modules/2.6.32-130.el6.x86_64/kernel/crypto/twofish_common.ko -v Adding f64ba8efd5f53c7ad332fc17db1d21de309038e1 /lib/modules/2.6.32-130.el6.x86_64/kernel/crypto/twofish_common.ko: Ok [root@intel-s3e36-01]~# /usr/bin/perf buildid-cache -r /lib/modules/2.6.32-130.el6.x86_64/kernel/crypto/twofish_common.ko -v Removing f64ba8efd5f53c7ad332fc17db1d21de309038e1 /lib/modules/2.6.32-130.el6.x86_64/kernel/crypto/twofish_common.ko: FAIL /lib/modules/2.6.32-130.el6.x86_64/kernel/crypto/twofish_common.ko wasn't in the cache The change in build_id_cache__add_s() is a defense.
