When building with -Wsometimes-uninitialized, Clang warns: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../powerplay/vega20_ppt.c:456:2: warning: variable 'num_of_levels' is used uninitialized whenever '?:' condition is false [-Wsometimes-uninitialized] smu_read_smc_arg(smu, &num_of_levels); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../powerplay/inc/amdgpu_smu.h:608:3: note: expanded from macro 'smu_read_smc_arg' ((smu)->funcs->read_smc_arg?

The if statement it mentions as potentially problematic is currently always true because the read_smc_arg callback is assigned at the bottom of this file but Clang can't tell that. If the callback were ever to disappear, num_of_levels would never be initialized. Just zero initialize it to ensure that the intent behind this code remains the same.

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.
