clang warns about a possible variable use that gcc never complained about: drivers/media/platform/davinci/isif.c:982:32: error: variable 'frame_size' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized] dm365_vpss_set_pg_frame_size(frame_size); ^~~~~~~~~~ drivers/media/platform/davinci/isif.c:887:2: note: variable 'frame_size' is declared here struct vpss_pg_frame_size frame_size; ^ 1 error generated. There is no initialization for this variable at all, and there has never been one in the mainline kernel, so we really should not put that stack data into an mmio register. On the other hand, I suspect that gcc checks the condition more closely and notices that the global isif_cfg.bayer.config_params.test_pat_gen flag is initialized to zero and never written to from any code path, so anything depending on it can be eliminated. To shut up the clang warning, just remove the dead code manually, it has probably never been used because any attempt to do so would have resulted in undefined behavior.

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.
