Re: [Gluster-devel] Coverity fixes
One of the things I noticed is, if we make https://scan.coverity.com/projects/gluster-glusterfs as the source of truth for coverity issues, then the issue IDs will be constant. We can reference them. Also note that we should most probably focusing on 'High Impact' issues first for sure, than the medium/low impact issues.

We’d need atleast (a) the defect id with pointer to the coverity link which most of the devs are now following I guess but with a caveat that link goes stale in 7 days and the review needs to be done by that time or (b) the commit message should exactly have the coverity description which is more neat.

AFAIK the defect IDs are constantly changing as some get fixed and new ones get added. (And I know everyone looks at the coverity report after their new code is committed to see if they might have added a new issue.) Today's defect ID 435 might be 436 or 421 tomorrow. -- Kaleb ___ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@gluster.org http://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
[Gluster-devel] Coverity fixes
While I appreciate the folks to contribute lot of coverity fixes over last few days, I have an observation for some of the patches the coverity issue id(s) are *not* mentioned which gets maintainers in a difficult situation to understand the exact complaint coming out of the coverity. From my past experience in fixing coverity defects, sometimes the fixes might look simple but they are not. May I request all the developers to include the defect id in the commit message for all the coverity fixes? ___ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@gluster.org http://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
