Hello Lendacky, Thomas,

The patch c5aa9e3b8156: "amd-xgbe: Initial AMD 10GbE platform driver"
from Jun 5, 2014, leads to the following Smatch warning:

	drivers/net/ethernet/amd/xgbe/xgbe-dev.c:1633 xgbe_dev_read()
	warn: we tested 'err' before and it was 'true'

drivers/net/ethernet/amd/xgbe/xgbe-dev.c
  1628          /* Check for errors (only valid in last descriptor) */
  1629          err = XGMAC_GET_BITS_LE(rdesc->desc3, RX_NORMAL_DESC3, ES);
  1630          etlt = XGMAC_GET_BITS_LE(rdesc->desc3, RX_NORMAL_DESC3, ETLT);
  1631          DBGPR("  err=%u, etlt=%#x\n", err, etlt);
  1632  
  1633          if (!err || (err && !etlt)) {
                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Smatch is saying that we could re-write this as:

		if (!err || !etlt) {

Which is true, but I'm not sure if that was really the original intent
of the code.  If it was then maybe we could make it more explicit by
saying:

	if (etlt = 0x00) {
		/* do nothing */
	} else if (!err) {
		if (etlt == 0x09 &&
		...
	} else {
		if (etlt == 0x05 || etlt == 0x06)
		...

  1634                  if ((etlt == 0x09) &&
  1635                      (netdev->features & NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_CTAG_RX)) {
  1636                          XGMAC_SET_BITS(packet->attributes, RX_PACKET_ATTRIBUTES,
  1637                                         VLAN_CTAG, 1);
  1638                          packet->vlan_ctag = XGMAC_GET_BITS_LE(rdesc->desc0,
  1639                                                                RX_NORMAL_DESC0,
  1640                                                                OVT);
  1641                          DBGPR("  vlan-ctag=0x%04x\n", packet->vlan_ctag);
  1642                  }
  1643          } else {
  1644                  if ((etlt == 0x05) || (etlt == 0x06))
  1645                          XGMAC_SET_BITS(packet->attributes, RX_PACKET_ATTRIBUTES,
  1646                                         CSUM_DONE, 0);
  1647                  else
  1648                          XGMAC_SET_BITS(packet->errors, RX_PACKET_ERRORS,
  1649                                         FRAME, 1);
  1650          }
  1651
