Hi John and Nelson,
I have a question regarding Coverity defects:
File: /drivers/net/enic/enic_ethdev.c
Line: 379
CID 13197: Unchecked return value (CHECKED_RETURN)1. check_return: Calling rte_atomic64_cmpset without checking return value (as is done elsewhere 15 out of 17 times)
Can I mark this error as "False Positive" in Coverity Classification ? reason:
1. Function returns a void type so change the return type to int requires changes all drivers
2. rte_atomic64_cmpset is at the end of function so nonsense added a return
What is your opinion?
Regards,
Marcin
