From bf6445631c6f00882b25516a174d5073ce0c6f81 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Senna Tschudin Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2015 12:08:53 +0200 Subject: perf tools: Bool functions shouldn't return -1 Returning a negative value for a boolean function seem to have the undesired effect of returning true. Replace -1 by false in a bool-returning function. The diff of the .s file before and after the change (for x86_64): 3907c3907 < movl $1, %ebx --- > xorl %ebx, %ebx while if -1 is replaced by true, the diff is empty.
