Subject: [PATCH] selftests/mm: Fix compiler -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning
Date: Wed,  9 Apr 2025 15:20:06 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250409095006.1422620-1-anshuman.khandual@arm.com> (raw)

Following build warning comes up for cow test as 'transferred' variable has
not been initialized. Fix the warning via zero init for the variable.

  CC       cow
cow.c: In function ‘do_test_vmsplice_in_parent’:
cow.c:365:61: warning: ‘transferred’ may be used uninitialized [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
  365 |                 cur = read(fds[0], new + total, transferred - total);
      |                                                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~
