Hello Jean-Francois Moine,
This is a semi-automatic email about new static checker warnings.
The patch fc275a74eb81: "drm/i2c: tda998x: free the CEC device on
encoder_destroy" from Jan 25, 2014, leads to the following Smatch
complaint:
drivers/gpu/drm/i2c/tda998x_drv.c:1194 tda998x_encoder_destroy()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'priv->cec' (see line 1189)
drivers/gpu/drm/i2c/tda998x_drv.c
1188 /* disable all IRQs and free the IRQ handler */
1189 cec_write(priv, REG_CEC_RXSHPDINTENA, 0);
^^^^
We need priv->cec for this.
1190 reg_clear(priv, REG_INT_FLAGS_2, INT_FLAGS_2_EDID_BLK_RD);
1191 if (priv->hdmi->irq)
1192 free_irq(priv->hdmi->irq, priv);
1193
1194 if (priv->cec)
^^^^^^^^^
So hopefully this new check can be removed?
1195 i2c_unregister_device(priv->cec);
1196 kfree(priv);
regards,
dan carpenter
