ret__ starts "uninitialized".

If we didn't hit the timeout, it's still "uninitialized".

If the condition was not met, it's still "uninitialized".

But we read its "uninitialized" value here.

But why isn't the compiler complaining about this? Am I failing to see
something here?

If my analysis is correct, all you need to do is to keep ret__ being
initialized to zero. At least for clarity of the future code readers in
case it's expected to be auto-initialized to zero due to some weird
rule about compound statements or something.

With the ret__ initialization to zero:
