Subject: 2.5.73: eth1394.c: ptask might be used uninitialized
Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2003 19:22:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030624172254.GQ3710@fs.tum.de> (raw)

In 2.5.73, gcc complains as follows:

<--  snip  -->

...
  CC      drivers/ieee1394/eth1394.o
...
drivers/ieee1394/eth1394.c:1424: warning: `ptask' might be used 
uninitialized in this function
...

<--  snip  -->

It seems something like the patch below might be needed (I didn't check 
for 100% correctness, but it shows what might be needed to fix it).
