Subject: drivers/ieee1394/ohci1394.c: function calls without effect
Date: Thu, 9 Mar 2006 12:41:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060309114138.GA21864@stusta.de> (raw)
While investigating two (incorrect) errors of the Coverity checker, I
found the following in drivers/ieee1394/ohci1394.c:ohci1394_pci_remove():
/* Free IR dma */
free_dma_rcv_ctx(&ohci->ir_legacy_context);
/* Free IT dma */
free_dma_trm_ctx(&ohci->it_legacy_context);
/* Free IR legacy dma */
free_dma_rcv_ctx(&ohci->ir_legacy_context);
Both functions contain:
<-- snip -->
static void free_dma_rcv_ctx(struct dma_rcv_ctx *d)
{
int i;
struct ti_ohci *ohci = d->ohci;
if (ohci == NULL)
return;
...
/* Mark this context as freed. */
d->ohci = NULL;
}
<-- snip -->
There are no other return possibilities in these functions.
Therefore, the latter two of the three function calls above aren't doing
anything.
