From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx> Initialize rc 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/sis7019.c | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/sound/pci/sis7019.c b/sound/pci/sis7019.c index 535efe2..51e4340 100644 --- a/sound/pci/sis7019.c +++ b/sound/pci/sis7019.c @@ -1377,8 +1377,9 @@ static int __devinit sis_chip_create(struct snd_card *card, if (rc) goto error_out_cleanup; - if (request_irq(pci->irq, sis_interrupt, IRQF_SHARED, KBUILD_MODNAME, - sis)) { + rc = request_irq(pci->irq, sis_interrupt, IRQF_SHARED, KBUILD_MODNAME, + sis); + if (rc) { dev_err(&pci->dev, "unable to allocate irq %d\n", sis->irq); goto error_out_cleanup; } -- 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
