Subject: selftests: mptcp: Mark xerror and die_perror __noreturn
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2fa98059fd5a0936d0951bd14f8990ae0aa5272a;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

selftests: mptcp: Mark xerror and die_perror __noreturn

Compiler reports potential uses of uninitialized variables in
mptcp_connect.c when xerror() is called from failure paths.

mptcp_connect.c:1262:11: warning: variable 'raw_addr' is used
      uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false
      [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]

xerror() terminates execution by calling exit(), but it is not visible
to the compiler & assumes control flow may continue past the call.

Annotate xerror() with __noreturn so the compiler can correctly reason
about control flow and avoid false-positive uninitialized variable
warnings.
