Subject: [PATCH v2] pc-bios/s390-ccw: Use reset_psw pointer instead of hard-coded null pointer
Date: Fri, 23 Apr 2021 16:24:40 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210423142440.582188-1-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)
When compiling the s390-ccw bios with clang, it emits a warning like this:
pc-bios/s390-ccw/jump2ipl.c:86:9: warning: indirection of non-volatile null
pointer will be deleted, not trap [-Wnull-dereference]
if (*((uint64_t *)0) & RESET_PSW_MASK) {
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
pc-bios/s390-ccw/jump2ipl.c:86:9: note: consider using __builtin_trap() or
qualifying pointer with 'volatile'
We could add a "volatile" here to shut it up, but on the other hand,
we also have a pointer variable called "reset_psw" in this file already
that points to the PSW at address 0, so we can simply use that pointer
variable instead.
