From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> The error code is stored in the variable err, but it is the variable ret that is returned instead. So store the error code in ret. Err is then useless. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r@ local idexpression x; constant C; @@ if (...) { ... x = -C ... when != x ( return <+...x...+>; | return NULL; | return; | * return ...; ) } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> --- This changes the semantics and has not been tested. drivers/net/qlcnic/qlcnic_main.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/qlcnic/qlcnic_main.c b/drivers/net/qlcnic/qlcnic_main.c index b9615bd..142ab1d 100644 --- a/drivers/net/qlcnic/qlcnic_main.c +++ b/drivers/net/qlcnic/qlcnic_main.c @@ -474,7 +474,7 @@ static int qlcnic_init_pci_info(struct qlcnic_adapter *adapter) { struct qlcnic_pci_info pci_info[QLCNIC_MAX_PCI_FUNC]; - int i, ret = 0, err; + int i, ret = 0; u8 pfn; if (!adapter->npars) @@ -487,7 +487,7 @@ qlcnic_init_pci_info(struct qlcnic_adapter *adapter) adapter->eswitch = kzalloc(sizeof(struct qlcnic_eswitch) * QLCNIC_NIU_MAX_XG_PORTS, GFP_KERNEL); if (!adapter->eswitch) { - err = -ENOMEM; + ret = -ENOMEM; goto err_eswitch; } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
