The goal of this series is to fix two bugs related to the initialization of bitfields: - bad shift & mask - no implicit zeroing One notable change is the removal of bit_offset & bit_size from struct access_data. Change since v1: - fix typo in handle_switch_fdump() - also remove struct access_data:alignment - also remove struct access_data:origval This series is available at: git://github.com/lucvoo/sparse.git fix-bitfield-init-v2 based on commit: 14964df5373292af78b29529d4fc7e1a26b67a97 (sparse-next @ 2017-03-31) up to commit: fc981fe285c37ee297e93ef1cc8725caac75f9b3 Luc Van Oostenryck (6): add support for a new flag: -fdump-linearize[=only] remove bit_size & bit_offset from struct access_data add test case for linearize_initializer() of bitfields fix implicit zero initializer. remove alignment from struct access_data remove origval from struct access_data lib.c | 23 +++++++ lib.h | 2 + linearize.c | 46 +++++++++----- sparse.1 | 7 +++ validation/linear/bitfield-init-mask.c | 27 +++++++++ validation/linear/bitfield-init-zero.c | 102 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ validation/linear/struct-init-full.c | 28 +++++++++ validation/linear/struct-init-partial.c | 41 +++++++++++++ 8 files changed, 260 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) create mode 100644 validation/linear/bitfield-init-mask.c create mode 100644 validation/linear/bitfield-init-zero.c create mode 100644 validation/linear/struct-init-full.c create mode 100644 validation/linear/struct-init-partial.c -- 2.12.0 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sparse" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
