[PATCH] hw/xen: Fix trace_xs_node_read() params
Posted by Liam Merwick 5 months, 1 week ago 
When the '--enable-trace-backends=syslog' build option is configured,
the following compilation error is encountered.

In file included from /usr/include/sys/syslog.h:207,
                 from /usr/include/syslog.h:1,
                 from ./trace/trace-hw_xen.h:224,
                 from ../hw/xen/trace.h:1,
                 from ../hw/xen/xen-bus-helper.c:13:
In function ‘syslog’,
    inlined from ‘_nocheck__trace_xs_node_read’ at ../hw/xen/trace-events:41:9,
    inlined from ‘trace_xs_node_read’ at trace/trace-hw_xen.h:903:9,
    inlined from ‘xs_node_read’ at ../hw/xen/xen-bus-helper.c:154:5:
/usr/include/bits/syslog.h:45:3: error: ‘%s’ directive argument is null [-Werror=format-overflow=]
   45 |   __syslog_chk (__pri, __USE_FORTIFY_LEVEL - 1, __fmt, __va_arg_pack ());
      |   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Add a check that 'value' is not null before passing it to trace_xs_node_read().

Fixes: e6cdeee95990 ("hw/xen: Add xs_node_read() helper function")

Alternatively, since this is an error path:
