Hello Anton Blanchard,
The patch 10239733ee86: "powerpc: Remove bootmem allocator" from Sep
17, 2014, leads to the following static checker warning:
arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.c:108 pte_alloc_one_kernel()
warn: 'pte' can't be NULL.
arch/powerpc/mm/pgtable_32.c
99 __init_refok pte_t *pte_alloc_one_kernel(struct mm_struct *mm, unsigned
long address)
100 {
101 pte_t *pte;
102 extern int mem_init_done;
103
104 if (mem_init_done) {
105 pte = (pte_t
*)__get_free_page(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_REPEAT|__GFP_ZERO);
106 } else {
107 pte = __va(memblock_alloc(PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_SIZE));
108 if (pte)
It's complaining because we need to check the return from
memblock_alloc() instead of the return from __va().
109 clear_page(pte);
110 }
111 return pte;
112 }
regards,
dan carpenter
