[ Upstream commit 1205b688c92558a04d8dd4cbc2b213e0fceba5db ] Dan reported following static checker warnings tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/resctrl_val.c:545 measure_vals() warn: 'bw_imc' unsigned <= 0 tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/resctrl_val.c:549 measure_vals() warn: 'bw_resc_end' unsigned <= 0 These warnings are reported because 1. measure_vals() declares 'bw_imc' and 'bw_resc_end' as unsigned long variables 2. Return value of get_mem_bw_imc() and get_mem_bw_resctrl() are assigned to 'bw_imc' and 'bw_resc_end' respectively 3. The returned values are checked for <= 0 to see if the calls failed Checking for < 0 for an unsigned value doesn't make any sense. Fix this issue by changing the implementation of get_mem_bw_imc() and get_mem_bw_resctrl() such that they now accept reference to a variable and set the variable appropriately upon success and return 0, else return < 0 on error.

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.
