[PATCH] bna: avoid writing uninitialized data into hw registers
From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Thu Mar 23 2017 - 12:08:07 EST
The latest gcc-7 snapshot warns about bfa_ioc_send_enable/bfa_ioc_send_disable
writing undefined values into the hardware registers:
drivers/net/ethernet/brocade/bna/bfa_ioc.c: In function 'bfa_iocpf_sm_disabling_entry':
arch/arm/include/asm/io.h:109:22: error: '*((void *)&disable_req+4)' is used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized]
arch/arm/include/asm/io.h:109:22: error: '*((void *)&disable_req+8)' is used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized]
The two functions look like they should do the same thing, but only one
of them initializes the time stamp and clscode field. The fact that we
only get a warning for one of the two functions seems to be arbitrary,
based on the inlining decisions in the compiler.
To address this, I'm making both functions do the same thing:
- set the clscode from the ioc structure in both
- set the time stamp from ktime_get_real_seconds (which also
avoids the signed-integer overflow in 2038 and extends the
well-defined behavior until 2106).
- zero-fill the reserved field
