Subject: Curious code in init()
Date: Wed, 02 Apr 2014 10:33:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <533BCB67.4050709@enovance.com> (raw)

Hey Jens,

The following code is pretty confusing for me :
http://git.kernel.dk/?p=fio.git;a=blob;f=init.c;h=c3996a76c12840e3ab3cf6514e5d5dce611a1077;hb=HEAD#l1962

The "if (nr_clients && fio_clients_connect()) {" is using the do_exit 
concept while being after the code that manage it and does a return -1 
while exit code is set to 1.

I don't get how it should be fixed.
1- we shall move the if nr_clients before the "if (do_exit", remove the 
return -1 and adjust the exit_code ?
2- we shall get rid of the do_exit & exit code semantic of the if 
nr_clients.

What was the intent while reading the code ? ;o)

Erwan,
