I had a look at this again. There are over 9.000 reports so it's a bit overwhelming, but I suspect there's a lot of "collateral damage". Ignoring contrib code for the moment, I decided to look at usr.sbin.pw from 2011-01-05. There's one report (http://scan.freebsd.your.org/freebsd-head/usr.sbin.pw/2011-01-05-amd64/report-KkilQ3.html#EndPath) which turns out to be a false positive: * Step 6 calls cmdhelp() on line 168; * cmdhelp() ends with "exit(EXIT_FAILURE);" on line 432 which I assume is exit(3) from libc * The analyzer doesn't know that this function never returns and continues to flag a null dereference in step 8 What's the fix here? I think the reports are an excellent way to get acquainted with FreeBSD code. Marking and fixing the false positives would make bug-hunting in the remaining reports more motivating :-) Thanks, Erik
