Subject: [PATCH] afs: Fix logically dead code in afs_update_cell
Date: Mon, 27 May 2019 11:54:13 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190527165413.GA26714@embeddedor> (raw)
Fix logically dead code in switch statement.
Notice that *ret* is updated with -ENOMEM before the switch statement
at 395:
395 switch (ret) {
396 case -ENODATA:
397 case -EDESTADDRREQ:
398 vllist->status = DNS_LOOKUP_GOT_NOT_FOUND;
399 break;
400 case -EAGAIN:
401 case -ECONNREFUSED:
402 vllist->status = DNS_LOOKUP_GOT_TEMP_FAILURE;
403 break;
404 default:
405 vllist->status = DNS_LOOKUP_GOT_LOCAL_FAILURE;
406 break;
407 }
hence, the code in the switch (except for the default case) makes
no sense and is logically dead.
Fix this by removing the *ret* assignment at 390:
390 ret = -ENOMEM;
which is apparently wrong.
