Since def->vcpus is not virDomainVcpuDefPtr but rather _array_ of virDomainVcpuDefPtr, then it *can* be NULL very easily. I know we don'tIt can't. Just the compiler thinks it can. We allocate it densely.deal with checking member[x] when x < nmembers, but OTOH it's not that often array of pointers. Also we do this very similar thing somewhere else, and the compiler doesn't complain, so we can change to that or just leave it as it is. Just so you know, my reasoning for this was that sparse vcpus could cause the array to be not mapped fully. I see now that every one of those pointers are mapped even when it's not needed, so I guess that's invalid. No idea why we have that as an array of pointers then.Since I've added private data every single member of the array needs to be initialized separately. I've opted for allocating them separately to go with the majority of our functions. I still plan for that to remain densely allocated.>Since we are rather adding dead code than not supporting broken >toolchain ... ACK. > The toolchain is actually not broken. The assumption from the syntactic POV is valid. If we thought it is broken we'd probably use -Wno-null-dereference or similar.We've already added some dead code because of that check.If two lines of dead code (that are clearly readable) are that annoyingIt might hint to readers that the array is indeed sparse. Reading the code again I now think that rather than skipping the loop the check for vcpu should be moved into the if right below it: if (vcpu && vcpu->cpumask) bitmap = vcpu->cpumask; By skipping the loop you don't fill anything which is semanticaly wrong in context of that function.to you (more than size_t->int->size_t hindering readability in thatErm, yes, that was bugging me and I'm not sure why I didn't get rid of that when I was refactoring it.function), I suggest raising that concern in a separate discussion on the ML so that we have a consensus about dealing with MinGW, clang, coverity, gcc > 4.9 and other scenarios that cause this. Way less people will read it when it's just part of a review for three-line build-breaker (from my experience). I, for one, don't really care about this that much, so I won't push this. Let's see how we resolve this once and for all (unless someone pushes another patch under the build-breaker rule).Or you could push this righ away since I clearly ACKed it.
I already had yet another fix in mind that doesn't add any dead code,
doesn't hint users anything and takes care of the error. Plus it uses
the same construct that already exists somewhere else in the code.
So would you like this one better?
