[PATCH 6/9] regulator: palmas: Drop unnecessary static
From: Julia Lawall
Date: Thu May 04 2017 - 16:36:16 EST
Drop static on a local variable, when the variable is initialized before
any use, on every possible execution path through the function.
The semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@bad exists@
position p;
identifier x;
type T;
@@
static T x@p;
...
x = <+...x...+>
@@
identifier x;
expression e;
type T;
position p != bad.p;
@@
-static
T x@p;
... when != x
when strict
?x = e;
// </smpl>
There is no reduction in code size in this case, but the change does reduce
the size of the bss segment, containing uninitialized static data.
