Subject: Smatch messages that are not understood
Date: Thu, 12 Sep 2013 17:29:26 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <52324046.5060709@lwfinger.net> (raw)

Hi,

I am in the process of fixing smatch warnings and errors in the rtlwifi family 
of drivers. Most are straight forward; however, some routines show info messages 
originating from an inline routine in the header files as follows:

   CHECK   drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192ce/dm.c
include/linux/etherdevice.h:278 ether_addr_equal_64bits() info: ignoring 
unreachable code.
include/linux/etherdevice.h:278 ether_addr_equal_64bits() info: ignoring 
unreachable code.

The source code is a current pull of the mainline git tree. I'm not sure if this 
is a subtle case of unreachable code that I do not see, or if it is a smatch bug.

Thanks,

Larry
