From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> Initialize err before returning on failure, as done elsewhere in the function. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> ( if@p1 (\(ret < 0\|ret != 0\)) { ... return ret; } | ret@p1 = 0 ) ... when != ret = e1 when != &ret *if(...) { ... when != ret = e2 when forall return ret; } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> --- sound/pci/ctxfi/ctatc.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/sound/pci/ctxfi/ctatc.c b/sound/pci/ctxfi/ctatc.c index 58b235c..a2f997a 100644 --- a/sound/pci/ctxfi/ctatc.c +++ b/sound/pci/ctxfi/ctatc.c @@ -1725,8 +1725,10 @@ int __devinit ct_atc_create(struct snd_card *card, struct pci_dev *pci, atc_connect_resources(atc); atc->timer = ct_timer_new(atc); - if (!atc->timer) + if (!atc->timer) { + err = -ENOMEM; goto error1; + } err = snd_device_new(card, SNDRV_DEV_LOWLEVEL, atc, &ops); if (err < 0) -- 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
