Hello there,

Recent gcc development versions say:

drivers/staging/media/atomisp/pci/runtime/rmgr/src/rmgr_vbuf.c:275:33: warning: storing the address of local variable ‘h’ in ‘*handle’ [-Wdangling-pointer=]

Source code is

      *handle = &h;

but h is a stack local variable, so exporting its address doesn't make any sense.

Regards

David Binderman

Hello there Greg,

>Great, can you send a patch to fix this up?

Sorry no. I have no idea what the fix is for this problem.

I just find them, I don't fix them.
