Hello Dmitry Eremin,

This is a semi-automatic email about new static checker warnings.

The patch 80feb1ef349e: "staging: lustre: provide separate buffers 
for libcfs_*2str()" from Oct 21, 2015, leads to the following Smatch 
complaint:

drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/obdclass/lprocfs_status.c:676 lprocfs_rd_import()
         warn: variable dereferenced before check 'imp->imp_connection' (see 
line 668)

drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/obdclass/lprocfs_status.c
   667          }
   668          libcfs_nid2str_r(imp->imp_connection->c_peer.nid,
                                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Patch introduces a new dereference.

   669                           nidstr, sizeof(nidstr));
   670          seq_printf(m,
   671                        "]\n"
   672                        "       current_connection: %s\n"
   673                        "       connection_attempts: %u\n"
   674                        "       generation: %u\n"
   675                        "       in-progress_invalidations: %u\n",
   676                        imp->imp_connection == NULL ? "<none>" : nidstr,
                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Old code assumes it can be NULL.

   677                        imp->imp_conn_cnt,
   678                        imp->imp_generation,

regards,
