Can't we just disable this warning for 9p code or is this just controllable for the entire project? Turning variables uninitialized might be fine now, but it also makes the code error prone for future changes. > I have no strong opinion here, but if we want to regularly run > scan-build we should fix these just to silence the messages. > > I've confirmed these all are indeed ok to remove. > > Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <simon.horman@corigine.com> > Signed-off-by: Dominique Martinet <asmadeus@codewreck.org> > --- > fs/9p/vfs_inode.c | 6 ------ > fs/9p/vfs_inode_dotl.c | 1 - > net/9p/client.c | 46 ++++++++++++---------------------------------- > 3 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 41 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/fs/9p/vfs_inode.c b/fs/9p/vfs_inode.c > index 3791f642c502..99305e97287c 100644 > --- a/fs/9p/vfs_inode.c > +++ b/fs/9p/vfs_inode.c > @@ -164,7 +164,6 @@ int v9fs_uflags2omode(int uflags, int extended) > { > int ret; > > - ret = 0; > switch (uflags&3) { > default: > case O_RDONLY: > @@ -604,7 +603,6 @@ v9fs_create(struct v9fs_session_info *v9ses, struct inode *dir, > > p9_debug(P9_DEBUG_VFS, "name %pd\n", dentry); > > - err = 0; > name = dentry->d_name.name; > dfid = v9fs_parent_fid(dentry); > if (IS_ERR(dfid)) { > @@ -816,8 +814,6 @@ v9fs_vfs_atomic_open(struct inode *dir, struct dentry *dentry, > if (!(flags & O_CREAT) || d_really_is_positive(dentry)) > return finish_no_open(file, res); > > - err = 0; > - > v9ses = v9fs_inode2v9ses(dir); > perm = unixmode2p9mode(v9ses, mode); > p9_omode = v9fs_uflags2omode(flags, v9fs_proto_dotu(v9ses)); > @@ -913,7 +909,6 @@ v9fs_vfs_rename(struct mnt_idmap *idmap, struct inode *old_dir, > return -EINVAL; > > p9_debug(P9_DEBUG_VFS, "\n"); > - retval = 0; > old_inode = d_inode(old_dentry); > new_inode = d_inode(new_dentry); > v9ses = v9fs_inode2v9ses(old_inode); > @@ -1067,7 +1062,6 @@ static int v9fs_vfs_setattr(struct mnt_idmap *idmap, > if (retval) > return retval; > > - retval = -EPERM; > v9ses = v9fs_dentry2v9ses(dentry); > if (iattr->ia_valid & ATTR_FILE) { > fid = iattr->ia_file->private_data; > diff --git a/fs/9p/vfs_inode_dotl.c b/fs/9p/vfs_inode_dotl.c > index 3acf2bcb69cc..43e282f21962 100644 > --- a/fs/9p/vfs_inode_dotl.c > +++ b/fs/9p/vfs_inode_dotl.c > @@ -367,7 +367,6 @@ static int v9fs_vfs_mkdir_dotl(struct mnt_idmap *idmap, > struct posix_acl *dacl = NULL, *pacl = NULL; > > p9_debug(P9_DEBUG_VFS, "name %pd\n", dentry); > - err = 0; > v9ses = v9fs_inode2v9ses(dir); > > omode |= S_IFDIR; > diff --git a/net/9p/client.c b/net/9p/client.c > index a3340268ec8d..86bbc7147fc1 100644 > --- a/net/9p/client.c > +++ b/net/9p/client.c > @@ -904,7 +904,7 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(do_trace_9p_fid_put); > > static int p9_client_version(struct p9_client *c) > { > - int err = 0; > + int err; > struct p9_req_t *req; > char *version = NULL; > int msize; > @@ -975,7 +975,6 @@ struct p9_client *p9_client_create(const char *dev_name, char *options) > struct p9_client *clnt; > char *client_id; > > - err = 0; > clnt = kmalloc(sizeof(*clnt), GFP_KERNEL); > if (!clnt) > return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM); > @@ -1094,7 +1093,7 @@ struct p9_fid *p9_client_attach(struct p9_client *clnt, struct p9_fid *afid, > const char *uname, kuid_t n_uname, > const char *aname) > { > - int err = 0; > + int err; > struct p9_req_t *req; > struct p9_fid *fid; > struct p9_qid qid; > @@ -1147,7 +1146,6 @@ struct p9_fid *p9_client_walk(struct p9_fid *oldfid, uint16_t nwname, > struct p9_req_t *req; > u16 nwqids, count; > > - err = 0; > wqids = NULL; > clnt = oldfid->clnt; > if (clone) { > @@ -1224,7 +1222,6 @@ int p9_client_open(struct p9_fid *fid, int mode) > clnt = fid->clnt; > p9_debug(P9_DEBUG_9P, ">>> %s fid %d mode %d\n", > p9_is_proto_dotl(clnt) ?

Yes, clang doesn't seem to complain about 'int reval = 0' so the patch can just be updated to do that instead; I just removed them because the sheer number made it faster to do that. Happy to drop this last patch for now and rework it when time permits. > > This is perfectly fine and the compiler will just optimize dead stores > > anyway, but scan-build seems to think this is a problem and there are > > many of these warnings making the output of scan-build full of such > > warnings: > > fs/9p/vfs_inode.c:916:2: warning: Value stored to 'retval' is never read [deadcode.DeadStores] > > retval = 0; > > ^ ~ > > Honestly I don't see much value in this warning. Can't we just disable this > warning for 9p code or is this just controllable for the entire project? Dead stores in itself is a useful warning, it's what found the real bug where return value was lost in patch 1 of this series, I don't think we should just disable the warning.

The 9p code for some reason used to initialize variables outside of the declaration, e.g. instead of just initializing the variable like this: int retval = 0 We would be doing this: int retval; retval = 0; This is perfectly fine and the compiler will just optimize dead stores anyway, but scan-build seems to think this is a problem and there are many of these warnings making the output of scan-build full of such warnings: fs/9p/vfs_inode.c:916:2: warning: Value stored to 'retval' is never read [deadcode.DeadStores] retval = 0; ^ ~ I have no strong opinion here, but if we want to regularly run scan-build we should fix these just to silence the messages. I've confirmed these all are indeed ok to remove.
