-Wsometimes-uninitialized Clang warning in drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c

[Nathan Chancellor]

Hi all,

We are trying to get Clang's -Wsometimes-uninitialized turned on for the
kernel as it can catch some bugs that GCC can't. This warning came up:

drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c:1612:6: warning: variable 'len' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (rxcmp1->rx_cmp_cfa_code_errors_v2 & RX_CMP_L2_ERRORS) {
            ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c:1703:19: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        cpr->rx_bytes += len;
                         ^~~
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c:1612:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always false
        if (rxcmp1->rx_cmp_cfa_code_errors_v2 & RX_CMP_L2_ERRORS) {
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt/bnxt.c:1540:18: note: initialize the variable 'len' to silence this warning
        unsigned int len;
                        ^
                         = 0
1 warning generated.

It seems like the logical change to make is this; however, I am not sure
if this has any other unintended consequences since this is a rather
dense function. I would much appreciate your input, especially if there
is a better way to fix it.

Cheers,
Nathan
