When building selftests/bpf with clang
make -j LLVM=1
make -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf -j LLVM=1
I hit the following compilation error:
trace_helpers.c:152:9: error: variable 'found' is used uninitialized whenever 'while' loop exits because its condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
while (fscanf(f, "%zx-%zx %s %zx %*[^\n]\n", &start, &end, buf, &base) == 4) {
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
trace_helpers.c:161:7: note: uninitialized use occurs here
if (!found)
^~~~~
trace_helpers.c:152:9: note: remove the condition if it is always true
while (fscanf(f, "%zx-%zx %s %zx %*[^\n]\n", &start, &end, buf, &base) == 4) {
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1
trace_helpers.c:145:12: note: initialize the variable 'found' to silence this warning
bool found;
^
= false
It is possible that for sane /proc/self/maps we may never hit the above issue
in practice. But let us initialize variable 'found' properly to silence the
compilation error.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
