[PATCH 1/2] staging: wfx: fix use of uninitialized pointer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Jérôme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@xxxxxxxxxx>

With -Wuninitialized, the compiler complains:

drivers/staging/wfx/data_tx.c:34:19: warning: variable 'band' is uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized]
    if (rate->idx >= band->n_bitrates) {
                         ^~~~
