Subject: [PATCH 1/3] mm/mmap/vma_merge: actually set next to NULL if not applicable
Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2023 12:58:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230323115903.1483668-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
As clang builds point out, the variable 'next' is now uninitialized
in some conditions as a result of a previous patch that tried to
rely on it being NULL here:
mm/mmap.c:939:11: error: variable 'next' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
else if (!curr)
^~~~~
mm/mmap.c:952:15: note: uninitialized use occurs here
merge_next = next && mpol_equal(policy, vma_policy(next)) &&
^~~~
Fixes: e887ecae997e ("mm/mmap/vma_merge: set next to NULL if not applicable")
