Initialize apshift to avoid a maybe-uninitialized error: C compiler for the host machine: cc -m64 -mbig-endian (gcc 13.2.0 "cc (Debian 13.2.0-10) 13.2.0") C linker for the host machine: cc -m64 -mbig-endian ld.bfd 2.41.90.20240115 Host machine cpu family: ppc64 Host machine cpu: ppc64 ... target/ppc/mmu-hash64.c: In function 'ppc_hash64_xlate': target/ppc/mmu-hash64.c:1154:15: error: 'apshift' may be used uninitialized [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] 1154 | *raddrp = deposit64(pte.pte1 & HPTE64_R_RPN, 0, apshift, eaddr); | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ target/ppc/mmu-hash64.c:947:14: note: 'apshift' was declared here 947 | unsigned apshift; | ^~~~~~~
The call chain is: ppc_hash64_xlate -> ppc_hash64_htab_lookup -> ppc_hash64_pteg_search ppc_hash64_pteg_search() either sets *pshift or returns -1, ppc_hash64_htab_lookup() returns if ppc_hash64_pteg_search() returned -1: 1068: ptex = ppc_hash64_htab_lookup(cpu, slb, eaddr, &pte, &apshift); 1069: if (ptex == -1) { 1070: if (!guest_visible) { 1071: return false; 1072: } ... 1087: return false; So IIUC this "uninitialized use" can not happens.
