Hello Jens Axboe,

Commit 4f08520591a2 ("io_uring: add task fork hook") from Jan 16,
2026 (linux-next), leads to the following Smatch static checker
warning:

	kernel/fork.c:2544 copy_process()
	warn: passing zero to 'ERR_PTR'

kernel/fork.c
  2128  #ifdef CONFIG_IO_URING
  2129          p->io_uring = NULL;
  2130          retval = io_uring_fork(p);

The patch added this assignment.

  2131          if (unlikely(retval))
  2132                  goto bad_fork_cleanup_delayacct;
  2133  #endif
  2134  
  2135          p->default_timer_slack_ns = current->timer_slack_ns;
  2136  
  2137  #ifdef CONFIG_PSI
  2138          p->psi_flags = 0;
  2139  #endif
  2140  
  2141          task_io_accounting_init(&p->ioac);
  2142          acct_clear_integrals(p);
  2143  
  2144          posix_cputimers_init(&p->posix_cputimers);
  2145          tick_dep_init_task(p);
  2146  
  2147          p->io_context = NULL;
  2148          audit_set_context(p, NULL);
  2149          cgroup_fork(p);
  2150          if (args->kthread) {
  2151                  if (!set_kthread_struct(p))
  2152                          goto bad_fork_cleanup_delayacct;

So now retval is success where previously it had been -EAGAIN

  2153          }
