[ Upstream commit b9a85e5eec126d6ae6c362f94b447c223e8fe6e4 ]
The patch 1da177e4c3f4: "Linux-2.6.12-rc2" from Apr 16, 2005
(linux-next), leads to the following Smatch static checker warning:
drivers/infiniband/hw/mthca/mthca_cmd.c:644 mthca_SYS_EN()
error: uninitialized symbol 'out'.
drivers/infiniband/hw/mthca/mthca_cmd.c
636 int mthca_SYS_EN(struct mthca_dev *dev)
637 {
638 u64 out;
639 int ret;
640
641 ret = mthca_cmd_imm(dev, 0, &out, 0, 0, CMD_SYS_EN, CMD_TIME_CLASS_D);
We pass out here and it gets used without being initialized.
err = mthca_cmd_post(dev, in_param,
out_param ? *out_param : 0,
^^^^^^^^^^
in_modifier, op_modifier,
op, context->token, 1);
It's the same in mthca_cmd_wait() and mthca_cmd_poll().

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.
