perldiag describes that warning message, as others have pointed out. However, the line of code you show as causing it can't cause it; the warning is generated from some other line of code. Despite what a few others have said, that warning will not show up if $filename is undefined. A "Use of uninitialized value" warning might, but not a "Useless use of a variable in void context".
