Subject: [PATCH net-next v3] af_unix: Fix undefined 'other' error
Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2025 19:40:45 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250218141045.38947-1-purvayeshi550@gmail.com> (raw)
Fix an issue detected by the Smatch static analysis tool where an
"undefined 'other'" error occurs due to `__releases(&unix_sk(other)->lock)`
being placed before 'other' is in scope.
Remove the `__releases()` annotation from the `unix_wait_for_peer()`
function to eliminate the Smatch warning. The annotation references `other`
before it is declared, leading to a false positive error during static
analysis.
Since AF_UNIX does not use Sparse annotations, this annotation is
unnecessary and does not impact functionality.
