Hello,
I'm trying to set up a development environment on an Arndale (ARM Samsung Exynos 5250) board to work on sVirt. I'm using Debian 7.0, I've downloaded the source code from GIT and than: ./autogen.sh --prefix=$HOME/usr make
but in the middle of make execution, the program fails with this error: conf/domain_conf.c: In function 'virDomainHostdevDefParseXML': conf/domain_conf.c:3915:36: error: 'next_unit' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized] conf/domain_conf.c:3886:9: note: 'next_unit' was declared here conf/domain_conf.c: At top level: cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-Wno-unused-command-line-argument" [-Werror]
The problem is that the compiler is not clever enough to realize that we only use the 'next_unit' variable if found==true, and we will have initiailized it by then.
I've solved this problem simply initializing the "next_unit" variable (file src/conf/domain_conf.c, line 3886). This is the diff between the original file and the modified one: 3886c3886 < int next_unit; ---
int next_unit = -1;
This looks like the best way to make the compiler shut up.
Maybe it's only a compiler problem, but can anyone confirm this? Is it worth to submit a new bug report/patch the source?
We'd accept a patch initializing it as you suggest Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|
