Fix uninitialized variable msg
struct dm_i2c_chip *chip = dev_get_parent_platdata(dev);
struct i2c_msg msg;
struct i2c_msg msg = {0}; int ret; /* Set the address of the start register to be read */I assume it's the
msg.flags |= I2C_M_RD;line that is warned about (please include such info)? Isn't the right fix to replace that by
msg.flags = I2C_M_RD;?
Two lines("struct i2c msg;" and "msg.flags |= I2C_M_RD") are warned by build system.
What? That doesn't make sense. Perhaps your compiler is just friendly enough to show you the declaration of the struct i2c_msg, but clearly declaring an automatic variable without initializing it is not, by itself, wrong. Otherwise "int ret;" in that very same function should be warned about, and 100000 other instances in any code base written in C.
Please show the exact output from the compiler and the compiler version.
Initializing msg variable will be better.
No, understanding the cause of the warning and fixing that is clearly better.
