Hi Andrew, Hi all,

Thanks for the coverity reminder and good luck with release work Andrew !

Just sharing some info for fixing coverity warnings as it was surprisingly
difficult to find.
The checker's reference can be found here [1]. False positive can
*apparently* be
silenced with comments, e.g. :

/* coverity [COPY_PASTE_ERROR] */
u8 ab->ba.ab.ba = 1;

/* coverity[ -tainted_data_argument : arg-0 ] */
recvmsg (...);

Hope this helps
Cheers

-Nathan
