Subject: [bug report] PM / devfreq: Remove redundant governor_name from struct devfreq
Date: Wed, 7 Jul 2021 17:37:45 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <YOW8OfCxLDXe1XdF@mwanda> (raw)

[ It's so weird that I never reported this and also that no one else
  seems to have fixed it... ]

Hello Chanwoo Choi,

This is a semi-automatic email about new static checker warnings.

The patch 96ffcdf239de: "PM / devfreq: Remove redundant governor_name
from struct devfreq" from Oct 20, 2020, leads to the following Smatch
complaint:

    drivers/devfreq/devfreq.c:1272 devfreq_add_governor()
    warn: variable dereferenced before check 'devfreq->governor' (see line 1269)

drivers/devfreq/devfreq.c
  1268	
  1269			if (!strncmp(devfreq->governor->name, governor->name,
                                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Dereference

  1270				     DEVFREQ_NAME_LEN)) {
  1271				/* The following should never occur */
                                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
What?!?

  1272				if (devfreq->governor) {
                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Checked too late.

  1273					dev_warn(dev,
  1274						 "%s: Governor %s already present\n",

regards,
dan carpenter
