In particular, sparse issues the following warnings: SP compat/regex/regex.c .../regexec.c:2329:40: warning: Using plain integer as NULL pointer .../regexec.c:2316:15: warning: symbol 'merge_state_with_log' was \ not declared. Should it be static? .../regexec.c:2395:15: warning: symbol 'find_recover_state' was not \ declared. Should it be static? In order to fix the "symbol not declared" warnings (they are in fact declared static earlier in the file), we simply add the static modifier to the function definitions. Signed-off-by: Ramsay Jones <ramsay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi Junio, Now that I'm building git with NO_REGEX=1 in my config.mak, I'm also seeing these sparse warnings. Note that the "symbol not declared" warnings actually highlight a sparse bug; the earlier static function declarations should have (effectively) 'transferred' the static modifier to the corresponding function definition ... [I have a testcase for this in my sparse repo, but I don't seem to have found time to actually create a patch to fix this. :(] ATB, Ramsay Jones compat/regex/regexec.c | 6 +++--- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/compat/regex/regexec.c b/compat/regex/regexec.c index 0194965..0cd6e0e 100644 --- a/compat/regex/regexec.c +++ b/compat/regex/regexec.c @@ -2313,7 +2313,7 @@ transit_state (reg_errcode_t *err, re_match_context_t *mctx, } /* Update the state_log if we need */ -re_dfastate_t * +static re_dfastate_t * internal_function merge_state_with_log (reg_errcode_t *err, re_match_context_t *mctx, re_dfastate_t *next_state) @@ -2326,7 +2326,7 @@ merge_state_with_log (reg_errcode_t *err, re_match_context_t *mctx, mctx->state_log[cur_idx] = next_state; mctx->state_log_top = cur_idx; } - else if (mctx->state_log[cur_idx] == 0) + else if (mctx->state_log[cur_idx] == NULL) { mctx->state_log[cur_idx] = next_state; } @@ -2392,7 +2392,7 @@ merge_state_with_log (reg_errcode_t *err, re_match_context_t *mctx, /* Skip bytes in the input that correspond to part of a multi-byte match, then look in the log for a state from which to restart matching. */ -re_dfastate_t * +static re_dfastate_t * internal_function find_recover_state (reg_errcode_t *err, re_match_context_t *mctx) { -- 1.7.5 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
