[PATCH] trace event block fix unassigned field

From: Mathieu Desnoyers
Date: Thu Jan 06 2011 - 13:43:36 EST


The "error" field in block_bio_complete is not assigned, leaving the memory area
uninitialized (keeping garbage data). Pass an additional tracepoint argument to
this event to initialize this field.
