Hi Marcel! Sorry sorry!! This is obviously not necessary! This is code that was left when I tried to split up my original big patch. This was part of code trying to solve a possible divided by 0. int q = 0; ... if (num) q = cnt / num; *quote = q ? q : 1; But I'm not sure if it can happen in reality... Guessing it will be caught by in that case by: if (!chan) return NULL; I had actually not planned to submit this divided by 0 patch at all :-/ Best regards Rickard Strandqvist 2014-06-01 16:24 GMT+02:00 Marcel Holtmann <marcel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>: > Hi Rickard, > >> There is a risk that the variable will be used without being initialized. >> >> This was largely found by using a static code analysis program called cppcheck. >> >> Signed-off-by: Rickard Strandqvist <rickard_strandqvist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >> --- >> net/bluetooth/hci_core.c | 2 +- >> 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) >> >> diff --git a/net/bluetooth/hci_core.c b/net/bluetooth/hci_core.c >> index 1c6ffaa..1d93d2f 100644 >> --- a/net/bluetooth/hci_core.c >> +++ b/net/bluetooth/hci_core.c >> @@ -4603,7 +4603,7 @@ static struct hci_chan *hci_chan_sent(struct hci_dev *hdev, __u8 type, >> struct hci_chan *chan = NULL; >> unsigned int num = 0, min = ~0, cur_prio = 0; >> struct hci_conn *conn; >> - int cnt, q, conn_num = 0; >> + int cnt, q = 0, conn_num = 0; > > I have no idea on how the variable will be used without being initialized. Have you actually looked through that function. The only thing we do with q is assign it and then use it.
