Hello Cheng Xu, The patch c4612e83c14b: "RDMA/erdma: Add verbs implementation" from May 23, 2022, leads to the following Smatch static checker warning: drivers/infiniband/hw/erdma/erdma_verbs.c:111 create_qp_cmd() error: uninitialized symbol 'resp0'. drivers/infiniband/hw/erdma/erdma_verbs.c 100 req.sq_buf_addr = user_qp->sq_mtt.mtt_entry[0]; 101 req.rq_buf_addr = user_qp->rq_mtt.mtt_entry[0]; 102 103 req.sq_db_info_dma_addr = user_qp->sq_db_info_dma_addr; 104 req.rq_db_info_dma_addr = user_qp->rq_db_info_dma_addr; 105 } 106 107 err = erdma_post_cmd_wait(&dev->cmdq, (u64 *)&req, sizeof(req), &resp0, 108 &resp1); The erdma_post_cmd_wait() function does not initialize erdma_post_cmd_wait() on the error paths. Also it returns comp_wait->comp_status which is a u8. I guess that's some kind of custom error code. Mixing kernel and custom error codes is dangerous. I think it's a bug in this case. 109 110 qp->attrs.cookie = --> 111 FIELD_GET(ERDMA_CMDQ_CREATE_QP_RESP_COOKIE_MASK, resp0); 112 113 return err; 114 } regards, dan carpenter
