In iw_create_tx_threads(), failure to create kthread is basic failure, which affect performance only. The whole kthread creation spam in this driver looked suspicious during submission and it continues to be. This patch remove the failed print to fix gcc warning: drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_main.c: In function 'siw_create_tx_threads': drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_main.c:91:11: warning: variable 'rv' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable] Reported-by: Hulk Robot <hulkci@xxxxxxxxxx> Suggested-by: Leon Romanovsky <leon@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: YueHaibing <yuehaibing@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_main.c | 4 +--- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_main.c b/drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_main.c index fd2552a..f55c4e8 100644 --- a/drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_main.c +++ b/drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siw_main.c @@ -88,7 +88,7 @@ static void siw_device_cleanup(struct ib_device *base_dev) static int siw_create_tx_threads(void) { - int cpu, rv, assigned = 0; + int cpu, assigned = 0; for_each_online_cpu(cpu) { /* Skip HT cores */ @@ -99,9 +99,7 @@ static int siw_create_tx_threads(void) kthread_create(siw_run_sq, (unsigned long *)(long)cpu, "siw_tx/%d", cpu); if (IS_ERR(siw_tx_thread[cpu])) { - rv = PTR_ERR(siw_tx_thread[cpu]); siw_tx_thread[cpu] = NULL; - pr_info("Creating TX thread for CPU %d failed", cpu); continue; } kthread_bind(siw_tx_thread[cpu], cpu); -- 2.7.4
