Subject: [bug report] block, bfq: bring forward seek&think time update
Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2019 11:03:00 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190627080300.GA28276@mwanda> (raw)
Hello Paolo Valente,
This is a semi-automatic email about new static checker warnings.
The patch a3f9bce3697a: "block, bfq: bring forward seek&think time
update" from Jun 25, 2019, leads to the following Smatch complaint:
block/bfq-iosched.c:5353 __bfq_insert_request()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'bfqq' (see line 5349)
block/bfq-iosched.c
5348
5349 bfq_update_io_thinktime(bfqd, bfqq);
^^^^
The patch introduces a new dereference (inside the function)
5350 bfq_update_has_short_ttime(bfqd, bfqq, RQ_BIC(rq));
5351 bfq_update_io_seektime(bfqd, bfqq, rq);
5352
5353 waiting = bfqq && bfq_bfqq_wait_request(bfqq);
^^^^
but the old code assumed "bfqq" could be NULL.
5354 bfq_add_request(rq);
5355 idle_timer_disabled = waiting && !bfq_bfqq_wait_request(bfqq);
regards,
dan carpenter
