Subject: Re: [PATCH] checkpatch: Warn on unnecessary void function return statements
Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2014 16:28:20 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1402961300-17985-1-git-send-email-anish@chelsio.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1401728316.5770.9.camel@joe-AO725>
This seems to ignore the ability to exit from void return functions via a `return;` in case of an error or similar. Any attempt to bail out generates warnings with checkpathch.pl Perhaps it should check for returns only at the end of the function ? If not, is there a suggested way to do this ? goto labels can't be directly used in place either
