[PATCH bpf 2/2] bpf: Avoid using ARRAY_SIZE on an uninitialized pointer
From: Florent Revest
Date: Mon May 17 2021 - 05:29:22 EST
The cppcheck static code analysis reported the following error:
>> helpers.c:713:43: warning: Uninitialized variable: bufs [uninitvar]
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(nest_level > ARRAY_SIZE(bufs->tmp_bufs))) {
^
ARRAY_SIZE is a macro that expands to sizeofs, so bufs is not actually
dereferenced at runtime, and the code is actually safe. But to keep
things tidy, this patch removes the need for a call to ARRAY_SIZE by
extracting the size of the array into a macro. Cppcheck should no longer
be confused and the code ends up being a bit cleaner.
