When a device tree definition os an s3c64xx SPI master is missing a "controller-data" subnode, the newly added s3c64xx_get_slave_ctrldata function might use uninitialized memory in place of that node, which was correctly reported by gcc.
Without this patch, building s3c6400_defconfig results in: drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c: In function 's3c64xx_get_slave_ctrldata.isra.25': drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c:841:5: warning: 'data_np' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <[email protected]> Cc: Thomas Abraham <[email protected]> Cc: Jaswinder Singh <[email protected]> Cc: Grant Likely <[email protected]> Cc: Kukjin Kim <[email protected]> --- drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c b/drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c index 646a765..cfa2c35 100644 --- a/drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c +++ b/drivers/spi/spi-s3c64xx.c @@ -826,7 +826,7 @@ static struct s3c64xx_spi_csinfo *s3c64xx_get_slave_ctrldata( struct spi_device *spi) { struct s3c64xx_spi_csinfo *cs; - struct device_node *slave_np, *data_np; + struct device_node *slave_np, *data_np = NULL; u32 fb_delay = 0; slave_np = spi->dev.of_node; -- 1.7.10 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
