From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> Initialize return variable before exiting on an error path. 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> --- drivers/rpmsg/virtio_rpmsg_bus.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/rpmsg/virtio_rpmsg_bus.c b/drivers/rpmsg/virtio_rpmsg_bus.c index 590cfaf..c5e66d9 100644 --- a/drivers/rpmsg/virtio_rpmsg_bus.c +++ b/drivers/rpmsg/virtio_rpmsg_bus.c @@ -959,8 +959,10 @@ static int rpmsg_probe(struct virtio_device *vdev) bufs_va = dma_alloc_coherent(vdev->dev.parent->parent, RPMSG_TOTAL_BUF_SPACE, &vrp->bufs_dma, GFP_KERNEL); - if (!bufs_va) + if (!bufs_va) { + err = -ENOMEM; goto vqs_del; + } dev_dbg(&vdev->dev, "buffers: va %p, dma 0x%llx\n", bufs_va, (unsigned long long)vrp->bufs_dma); -- 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
