Support background commands in the mailbox, and update
cmd_infostat_bg_op_sts() accordingly. This patch does not implement mbox
interrupts upon completion, so the kernel driver must rely on polling to
know when the operation is done.

Hi; Coverity points out dead code in this function (CID 1523907):

+static void bg_timercb(void *opaque)
+{
+    CXLCCI *cci = opaque;
+    CXLDeviceState *cxl_dstate = &CXL_TYPE3(cci->d)->cxl_dstate;
+    uint64_t bg_status_reg = 0;
+    uint64_t now = qemu_clock_get_ms(QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL);
+    uint64_t total_time = cci->bg.starttime + cci->bg.runtime;
+
+    assert(cci->bg.runtime > 0);
+    bg_status_reg = FIELD_DP64(bg_status_reg, CXL_DEV_BG_CMD_STS,
+                               OP, cci->bg.opcode);
+
+    if (now >= total_time) { /* we are done */
+        uint64_t status_reg;
+        uint16_t ret = CXL_MBOX_SUCCESS;

Here we set 'ret' to CXL_MBOX_SUCCESS...

+
+        cci->bg.complete_pct = 100;
+        /* Clear bg */
+        status_reg = FIELD_DP64(0, CXL_DEV_MAILBOX_STS, BG_OP, 0);
+        cxl_dstate->mbox_reg_state64[R_CXL_DEV_MAILBOX_STS] = status_reg;
+
+        bg_status_reg = FIELD_DP64(bg_status_reg, CXL_DEV_BG_CMD_STS,
+                                   RET_CODE, ret);

...and nothing here changes 'ret'...

+
+        /* TODO add ad-hoc cmd succesful completion handling */
+
+        qemu_log("Background command %04xh finished: %s\n",
+                 cci->bg.opcode,
+                 ret == CXL_MBOX_SUCCESS ? "success" : "aborted");

...but here we check whether ret is CXL_MBOX_SUCCESS or not:
the "aborted" half of this condition is dead code.

Yeah this had also been removed in a later version:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cxl/20230418172337.19207-2-d...@stgolabs.net/


A later commit adds an "if (ret == CXL_MBOX_SUCCESS) {" block
where the TODO currently is, and that is an unnecessary check,
because ret cannot be anything else at that point.

I'll send a patch along with the other dead code report.

Thanks,
Davidlohr
