Linux kernel source tree

gcc points out an uninialized pointer dereference that could happen if we ever get to recv_ishtp_cl_msg_dma() or recv_ishtp_cl_msg() with an empty &dev->read_list: drivers/hid/intel-ish-hid/ishtp/client.c: In function 'recv_ishtp_cl_msg_dma': drivers/hid/intel-ish-hid/ishtp/client.c:1049:3: error: 'cl' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] The warning only appeared in very few randconfig builds, as the spinlocks tend to prevent gcc from tracing the variables. I only saw it in configurations that had neither SMP nor LOCKDEP enabled. As we can see, we only enter the case if 'complete_rb' is non-NULL, and then 'cl' is known to point to complete_rb->cl. Adding another initialization to the same pointer is harmless here and makes it clear to the compiler that the behavior is well-defined.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
