It also helps with static analysis tools. CodingStyle seems to be silent on the point, but points to Kernighan and Ritchie, who say "These initializations are actually unnecessary, since all are zero, but it's a good idea to make them explicit anyway." Any reasonable compiler will avoid doing the initialization twice... --- | ... | > +static int cpu_vltg_show(void *md_opt, int *value) | > +{ | > + int rc = 0; | > + if (md_opt == NULL) { | > + if ((*value = get_vtg("v1")) <= 0) | > + return -EIO; | > + } | > + else { | > + struct pm_core_point *opt = (struct pm_core_point *)md_opt; | > + *value = opt->cpu_vltg; | > + } | > + | > + return rc; | > +} | | int rc is unnecessary because the function always returns 0.
