Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH 2/3] api: fix "ignoring return value" of posix_memalign errors
Date: Wed, 24 May 2017 14:31:22 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170524213123.71538-2-dmatlack@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170524213123.71538-1-dmatlack@google.com>

posix_memalign returns zero on success and an errno value otherwise. The
value of the global variable "errno" is actually indeterminiate after a
call to posix_memalign(), according to the man page.

This patch also fixes the compilation errors:

api/dirty-log.cc:55:50: error: ignoring return value of ‘int posix_memalign(void**, size_t, size_t)’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result]
     posix_memalign(&logged_slot_virt, 4096, 4096);

api/identity.cc:23:41: error: ignoring return value of ‘int posix_memalign(void**, size_t, size_t)’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Werror=unused-result]
     posix_memalign(&tss, 4096, 4 * 4096);
