Clang warns (or errors with CONFIG_WERROR=y): drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/mac.c:8060:9: error: variable 'ret' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized] 8060 | return ret; | ^~~ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath12k/mac.c:8022:9: note: initialize the variable 'ret' to silence this warning 8022 | int ret, i, j; | ^ | = 0 1 error generated. Commit 6db6e70a17f6 ("wifi: ath12k: Introduce the container for mac80211 hw") added a completely uninitialized use of ret. Prior to that change, -ENOMEM was returned to the callers of ath12k_mac_allocate() whenever ath12k_mac_hw_allocate() failed. Assign that value to ret to make sure it is always initialized when used and clear up the warning.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
