From 5107fd3effb1cfec3b96d9e819f1605048640e31 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Maydell Date: Mon, 31 Oct 2022 13:29:01 +0000 Subject: net/vhost-vdpa.c: Fix clang compilation failure Commit 8801ccd0500437 introduced a compilation failure with clang version 10.0.0-4ubuntu1: ../../net/vhost-vdpa.c:654:16: error: variable 'vdpa_device_fd' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized] } else if (opts->has_vhostfd) { ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../../net/vhost-vdpa.c:662:33: note: uninitialized use occurs here r = vhost_vdpa_get_features(vdpa_device_fd, &features, errp); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../../net/vhost-vdpa.c:654:12: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always true } else if (opts->has_vhostfd) { ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ../../net/vhost-vdpa.c:629:23: note: initialize the variable 'vdpa_device_fd' to silence this warning int vdpa_device_fd; ^ = 0 1 error generated. It's a false positive -- the compiler doesn't manage to figure out that the error checks further up mean that there's no code path where vdpa_device_fd isn't initialized. Put another way, the problem is that we check "if (opts->has_vhostfd)" when in fact that condition must always be true. A cleverer static analyser would probably warn that we were checking an always-true condition. Fix the compilation failure by removing the unnecessary if().
