Subject: [PATCH] staging: lustre: lnet: avoid uninitialized return value
Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2018 10:34:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180116093511.3197459-1-arnd@arndb.de> (raw)

gcc warns that the latest workqueue change leads to returning an
uninitialized variable:

drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/selftest/module.c: In function 'lnet_selftest_init':
drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/selftest/module.c:98:10: error: 'rc' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

A failure from alloc_ordered_workqueue() tends to indicate an
out-of-memory condition, so return -ENOMEM in both cases.
The second error path was a preexisting bug, where we always
returned zero after a kvmalloc_array() failure.

Fixes: 6106c0f82481 ("staging: lustre: lnet: convert selftest to use workqueues")
