Hello Huang Ying, The patch c413d7682020: "ACPI, APEI, Add PCIe AER error information printing support" from Feb 21, 2011, leads to the following static checker warning: drivers/pci/pcie/aer/aerdrv_errprint.c:229 cper_print_aer() warn: bool comparison is always 'false' drivers/pci/pcie/aer/aerdrv_errprint.c 222 void cper_print_aer(struct pci_dev *dev, int aer_severity, 223 struct aer_capability_regs *aer) 224 { 225 int layer, agent, status_strs_size, tlp_header_valid = 0; 226 u32 status, mask; 227 const char **status_strs; 228 229 if (aer_severity == AER_CORRECTABLE) { ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ In the current code, aer_severity can only be AER_NONFATAL or AER_FATAL so this condition can never be true. This seems like it a confusing thing. 230 status = aer->cor_status; 231 mask = aer->cor_mask; 232 status_strs = aer_correctable_error_string; 233 status_strs_size = ARRAY_SIZE(aer_correctable_error_string); 234 } else { 235 status = aer->uncor_status; 236 mask = aer->uncor_mask; 237 status_strs = aer_uncorrectable_error_string; 238 status_strs_size = ARRAY_SIZE(aer_uncorrectable_error_string); 239 tlp_header_valid = status & AER_LOG_TLP_MASKS; 240 } 241 242 layer = AER_GET_LAYER_ERROR(aer_severity, status); 243 agent = AER_GET_AGENT(aer_severity, status); 244 regards, dan carpenter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
