From 48f125ce1cc3ff275f9587b5bf56bf0f90766c7d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Wed, 29 Aug 2012 06:49:12 +0000 Subject: net: ipv6: fix error return code Initialize return variable before exiting on an error path. The initial initialization of the return variable is also dropped, because that value is never used. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // ( if@p1 (\(ret < 0\|ret != 0\)) { ... return ret; } | ret@p1 = 0 ) ... when != ret = e1 when != &ret *if(...) { ... when != ret = e2 when forall return ret; } // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Signed-off-by: David S.
