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. This issue was found by the following Coccinelle semantic patch: <smpl> @@ identifier f; constant C; typedef bool; @@ bool f (...){ <+... * return -C; ...+> } </smpl> Signed-off-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@gmail.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com> Cc: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming@intel.com> Cc: Milos Vyletel <milos@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1442484533-19742-1-git-send-email-peter.senna@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
