From: Wang Nan <wangn...@huawei.com>
There are so many test cases use stack allocated 'struct machine'.
Including:
test__hists_link
test__hists_filter
test__mmap_thread_lookup
test__thread_mg_share
test__hists_output
test__hists_cumulate
Also, in non-test code (for example, machine__new_host()) there are
code use 'malloc()' to alloc struct machine.
These are dangerous operations, cause some tests fail or hung in
machines__exit(). For example, in
machines__exit ->
machine__destroy_kernel_maps ->
map_groups__remove ->
maps__remove ->
pthread_rwlock_wrlock
a incorrectly initialized lock causes unintended behavior.
This patch memset(0) that structure in machine__init() to ensure all
fields in 'struct machine' are initialized to zero.
