From: Tom Rix <trix@xxxxxxxxxx> Building with clang static analysis returns this warning: qm.c:4382:11: warning: The left operand of '==' is a garbage value if (*val == 0 || *val > QM_QOS_MAX_VAL || ret) { ~~~~ ^ The call to qm_qos_value_init() can return an error without setting *val. So check ret before checking *val.
