From: Tom Rix <[email protected]>

clang static analysis flags a garbage return

fs/btrfs/reflink.c:611:2: warning: Undefined or garbage value returned to caller [core.uninitialized.UndefReturn]
return ret;
^~~~~~~~~~
ret will not be set when olen is 0
When olen is 0, this function does no work.

So initialize ret to 0

Patch itself is good however, the bug cannot currently be triggered, due
to the following code in the sole caller (btrfs_remap_file_range):



15 if (ret < 0 || len == 0)

14 goto out_unlock;

13

12 if (remap_flags & REMAP_FILE_DEDUP)

11 ret = btrfs_extent_same(src_inode, off, len,
dst_inode, destoff);
10 else

9 ret = btrfs_clone_files(dst_file, src_file, off,
len, destoff);



i.e len is guaranteed to be non-zero

Yeah, for that reason I don't think we need to set the value inside
btrfs_extent_same because the caller(s) do the sanity checks.

There are VFS-level checks of the length wrt zero, eg. it won't even
call to copy_file_range from vfs_copy_file_range. The user supplied
length = 0 is interpreted as 'until the end of file' and is properly
reclaculated in generic_remap_file_range_prep.

This looks like clang checker is not able to follow the values accross
function calls, even if the functions are static.
