From 17e73d47cd095154878dfedd4918d6a9482eba13 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Leon Romanovsky Date: Tue, 2 Jun 2020 15:28:37 +0300 Subject: net/mlx5: Don't fail driver on failure to create debugfs Clang warns: drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/main.c:1278:6: warning: variable 'err' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Wsometimes-uninitialized] if (!priv->dbg_root) { ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/main.c:1303:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here return err; ^~~ drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/main.c:1278:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always false if (!priv->dbg_root) { ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/main.c:1259:9: note: initialize the variable 'err' to silence this warning int err; ^ = 0 1 warning generated. The check of returned value of debugfs_create_dir() is wrong because by the design debugfs failures should never fail the driver and the check itself was wrong too. The kernel compiled without CONFIG_DEBUG_FS will return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) and not NULL as expected.
