The function has an unsigned return type, but returns a negative constant to indicate an error condition. The result of calling the function is always stored in a variable of type (signed) int, and thus unsigned can be dropped from the return type. A sematic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @exists@ identifier f; constant C; @@ unsigned f(...) { <+... * return -C; ...+> } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> --- net/9p/trans_fd.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
