Hello Harshad Shirwadkar,
The patch 8016e29f4362: "ext4: fast commit recovery path" from Oct
15, 2020, leads to the following Smatch static checker warnings:
fs/ext4/inode.c:4533 __ext4_get_inode_loc_noinmem()
error: uninitialized symbol 'err_blk'.
fs/ext4/inode.c:4548 ext4_get_inode_loc()
error: uninitialized symbol 'err_blk'.
fs/ext4/inode.c
4523 static int __ext4_get_inode_loc_noinmem(struct inode *inode,
4524 struct ext4_iloc *iloc)
4525 {
4526 ext4_fsblk_t err_blk;
4527 int ret;
4528
4529 ret = __ext4_get_inode_loc(inode->i_sb, inode->i_ino, NULL, iloc,
4530 &err_blk);
4531
4532 if (ret == -EIO)
--> 4533 ext4_error_inode_block(inode, err_blk, EIO,
Only the last return -EIO sets err_blk. The first return -EIO leaves it
uninitialized.
4534 "unable to read itable block");
4535
4536 return ret;
4537 }
