[PATCH] seq_file: fix clang warning for NULL pointer arithmetic
From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Mon Oct 26 2020 - 17:53:30 EST
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
Clang points out that adding something to NULL is notallowed
in standard C:
fs/kernfs/file.c:127:15: warning: performing pointer arithmetic on a
null pointer has undefined behavior [-Wnull-pointer-arithmetic]
return NULL + !*ppos;
~~~~ ^
fs/seq_file.c:529:14: warning: performing pointer arithmetic on a
null pointer has undefined behavior [-Wnull-pointer-arithmetic]
return NULL + (*pos == 0);
Rephrase the function to do the same thing without triggering that
warning. Linux already relies on a specific binary representation
of NULL, so it makes no real difference here. The instance in
kernfs was copied from single_start, so fix both at once.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
Fixes: c2b19daf6760 ("sysfs, kernfs: prepare read path for kernfs")
