Deadstore detected by Lukas Bulwahn's CodeChecker Tool (ELISA group). line 741 struct cifsInodeInfo *cinode; line 747 cinode = CIFS_I(d_inode(cfile->dentry)); could be deleted. Signed-off-by: wenhuizhang <wenhui@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> cinode on filesystem should not be deleted when files are closed, they are representations of some data fields on a physical disk, thus no further action is required. The virtual inode on vfs will be handled by vfs automatically, and the denotation is inode, which is different from the cinode. --- fs/cifs/misc.c | 2 -- 1 file changed, 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/cifs/misc.c b/fs/cifs/misc.c index 524dbdfb7184..801a5300f765 100644 --- a/fs/cifs/misc.c +++ b/fs/cifs/misc.c @@ -738,13 +738,11 @@ void cifs_close_all_deferred_files(struct cifs_tcon *tcon) { struct cifsFileInfo *cfile; - struct cifsInodeInfo *cinode; struct list_head *tmp; spin_lock(&tcon->open_file_lock); list_for_each(tmp, &tcon->openFileList) { cfile = list_entry(tmp, struct cifsFileInfo, tlist); - cinode = CIFS_I(d_inode(cfile->dentry)); if (delayed_work_pending(&cfile->deferred)) mod_delayed_work(deferredclose_wq, &cfile->deferred, 0); } -- 2.17.1
