From 6fcc5420bfb91049a318bb4d88fe471248b5b391 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Boaz Harrosh Date: Sun, 20 Jul 2014 12:09:04 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] direct-io: fix uninitialized warning in do_direct_IO() MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The following warnings: fs/direct-io.c: In function ‘__blockdev_direct_IO’: fs/direct-io.c:1011:12: warning: ‘to’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] fs/direct-io.c:913:16: note: ‘to’ was declared here fs/direct-io.c:1011:12: warning: ‘from’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] fs/direct-io.c:913:10: note: ‘from’ was declared here are false positive because dio_get_page() either fails, or sets both 'from' and 'to'. Paul Bolle said ... Maybe it's better to move initializing "to" and "from" out of dio_get_page(). That _might_ make it easier for both the the reader and the compiler to understand what's going on. Something like this: Christoph Hellwig said ... The fix of moving the code definitively looks nicer, while I think uninitialized_var is horrible wart that won't get anywhere near my code.
