[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: silence clang false positive

Our logic throws off analyzer tools: ptr var = NULL; if (flags == 0) flags = live ? _LIVE : _CONFIG; if (flags & _LIVE) do stuff if (flags & _CONFIG) var = non-null; if (flags & _LIVE) do more stuff else if (flags & _CONFIG) use var the tools keep thinking that var can still be NULL in the last if clause, adding the hint shuts them up. * src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSetBlkioParameters): Add a static analysis hint. --- Off-list, I confirmed with Alex that ccc-analyzer and clang are both built on the same llvm compiler front end, and thus give the same analysis. And I reproduced the static analyzer false positive; this is the proper fix. src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 3 +++ 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c index ce19be7..a8e4b78 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c @@ -5679,6 +5679,9 @@ static int qemuDomainSetBlkioParameters(virDomainPtr dom, } } } else if (flags & VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CONFIG) { + /* Clang can't see that if we get here, persistentDef was set. */ + sa_assert(persistentDef); + for (i = 0; i < nparams; i++) { virTypedParameterPtr param = &params[i]; -- 1.7.4.4
