Message-ID: <20190612095225.GA14303@mwanda> (raw)

Hello Joel Fernandes (Google),

The patch 233ad92edbea: "pidfd: add polling selftests" from Apr 30,
2019, leads to the following static checker warning:

	./tools/testing/selftests/pidfd/pidfd_test.c:522 test_pidfd_poll_leader_exit()
	error: uninitialized symbol 'ret'.

./tools/testing/selftests/pidfd/pidfd_test.c

   488          int status, ret;
   489          time_t prog_start = time(NULL);
   490          const char *test_name = "pidfd_poll check for premature notification on non-empty"
   491                                  "group leader exit";
   492  
   493          child_exit_secs = mmap(NULL, sizeof *child_exit_secs, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,

   501          pid = pidfd_clone(CLONE_PIDFD, &pidfd, child_poll_leader_exit_test);

   509                  ret = waitpid(pid, &status, 0);
   510                  if (ret == -1)
   511                          ksft_print_msg("Parent: error\n");
   512          } else {
