From: Julia Lawall <[email protected]> Initialize return variable before exiting on an error path.
A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> ( if@p1 (\(ret < 0\|ret != 0\)) { ... return ret; } | ret@p1 = 0 ) ... when != ret = e1 when != &ret *if(...) { ... when != ret = e2 when forall return ret; } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <[email protected]> --- Actually, omap1_spi100k_reset currently always returns 0, so the test is never true. Perhaps this should be taken into account in some other way. drivers/spi/spi-omap-100k.c | 3 ++- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/spi/spi-omap-100k.c b/drivers/spi/spi-omap-100k.c index 9bd1c92..b581107 100644 --- a/drivers/spi/spi-omap-100k.c +++ b/drivers/spi/spi-omap-100k.c @@ -542,7 +542,8 @@ static int __devinit omap1_spi100k_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) goto err2; } - if (omap1_spi100k_reset(spi100k) < 0) + status = omap1_spi100k_reset(spi100k); + if (status < 0) goto err3; status = spi_register_master(master); -- 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/
