Because:

struct symbol {
         struct rb_node  rb_node;
         u64             start;
         u64             end;
         u16             namelen;
<SNIP>
         char            name[0];
};

It sym->name is not a pointer, in symbol's constructor we have:

struct symbol *symbol__new(u64 start, u64 len, u8 binding, u8 type, const char 
*name)
{
         size_t namelen = strlen(name) + 1;
         struct symbol *sym = calloc(1, (symbol_conf.priv_size +
                                         sizeof(*sym) + namelen));
         if (sym == NULL)
                 return NULL;
<SNIP>
         sym->namelen = namelen - 1;
         memcpy(sym->name, name, namelen);

         return sym;
}

So it is at least 1 char long, the test above should be:

        if (!sym || !sym->name[0])
                return scnprintf(bf, size, "%s", "[unknown]");

I'm fixing this up here.

Oh, yes, my mistake, very sorry about that.

Thanks for helping me to fix this.

Thanks
