Hi, Static analysis on linux-next with Coverity has detected an issue with the following commit: 529 static int ov02a10_s_stream(struct v4l2_subdev *sd, int on) 530 { 531 struct ov02a10 *ov02a10 = to_ov02a10(sd); 532 struct i2c_client *client = v4l2_get_subdevdata(&ov02a10->subdev); 1. var_decl: Declaring variable ret without initializer. 533 int ret; 534 535 mutex_lock(&ov02a10->mutex); 536 2. Condition ov02a10->streaming == on, taking true branch. 537 if (ov02a10->streaming == on) 3. Jumping to label unlock_and_return. 538 goto unlock_and_return; 539 540 if (on) { 541 ret = pm_runtime_get_sync(&client->dev); 542 if (ret < 0) { 543 pm_runtime_put_noidle(&client->dev); 544 goto unlock_and_return; 545 } 546 547 ret = __ov02a10_start_stream(ov02a10); 548 if (ret) { 549 __ov02a10_stop_stream(ov02a10); 550 ov02a10->streaming = !on; 551 goto err_rpm_put; 552 } 553 } else { 554 __ov02a10_stop_stream(ov02a10); 555 pm_runtime_put(&client->dev); 556 } 557 558 ov02a10->streaming = on; 559 mutex_unlock(&ov02a10->mutex); 560 561 return 0; 562 563 err_rpm_put: 564 pm_runtime_put(&client->dev); 565 unlock_and_return: 566 mutex_unlock(&ov02a10->mutex); 567 Uninitialized scalar variable (UNINIT) 4. uninit_use: Using uninitialized value ret. 568 return ret; 569 } Variable ret has not been initialized, so the error return value is a garbage value. It should be initialized with some appropriate negative error code, or ret could be removed and the return should return a literal value of a error code. I was unsure what value is appropriate to fix this, so instead I'm reporting this issue. Colin
