possible Warning in current branch:

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/monitor.c:310 __mon_event_count() error: uninitialized symbol 'm'.
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/resctrl/monitor.c:315 __mon_event_count() error: potentially dereferencing uninitialized 'm'.

Warning ids grouped by kconfigs:

|-- arch-x86-kernel-cpu-resctrl-monitor.c-__mon_event_count()-error:potentially-dereferencing-uninitialized-m-.
`-- arch-x86-kernel-cpu-resctrl-monitor.c-__mon_event_count()-error:uninitialized-symbol-m-.

AFAIR, I had already asked you guys to make those reports more useful
as, for example, adding a link to that randconfig above or even
attaching it so that a person - not a machine - reading it, can
*actually* act upon it.

But that hasn't happened.

Until it happens, I'm going to ignore all those reports from you.


Hi Borislav,

Sorry about it, the actual link is at https://lists.01.org/hyperkitty/list/kbuild@xxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/PZVMY3VJU4QY4HQXHK3MLPQ2KZ5CNAYH/,
and it's still an internal report that the robot don't know whether it's a false positive or not, we'll update the mail contents to avoid misunderstanding.

Best Regards,
Rong Chen
