Subject: [PATCH 6.1.y] KVM: arm64: silence -Wuninitialized-const-pointer warning
Date: Thu, 24 Jul 2025 18:15:28 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250724-b4-clidr-unint-const-ptr-v1-1-67c4d620b6b6@google.com> (raw)
A new warning in Clang 22 [1] complains that @clidr passed to
get_clidr_el1() is an uninitialized const pointer. get_clidr_el1()
doesn't really care since it casts away the const-ness anyways.
Silence the warning by initializing the struct.
This patch won't apply to anything past v6.1 as this code section was
reworked in Commit 7af0c2534f4c ("KVM: arm64: Normalize cache configuration").
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
Fixes: 7c8c5e6a9101e ("arm64: KVM: system register handling")
Link: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/00dacf8c22f065cb52efb14cd091d441f19b319e [1]
