UPSTREAM: selftests: kselftest: Mark functions that unconditionally call exit() as __noreturn After commit 6d029c25b71f ("selftests/timers/posix_timers: Reimplement check_timer_distribution()"), clang warns: tools/testing/selftests/timers/../kselftest.h:398:6: warning: variable 'major' is used uninitialized whenever '||' condition is true [-Wsometimes-uninitialized] 398 | if (uname(&info) || sscanf(info.release, "%u.%u.", &major, &minor) != 2) | ^~~~~~~~~~~~ tools/testing/selftests/timers/../kselftest.h:401:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here 401 | return major > min_major || (major == min_major && minor >= min_minor); | ^~~~~ tools/testing/selftests/timers/../kselftest.h:398:6: note: remove the '||' if its condition is always false 398 | if (uname(&info) || sscanf(info.release, "%u.%u.", &major, &minor) != 2) | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ tools/testing/selftests/timers/../kselftest.h:395:20: note: initialize the variable 'major' to silence this warning 395 | unsigned int major, minor; | ^ | = 0 This is a false positive because if uname() fails, ksft_exit_fail_msg() will be called, which unconditionally calls exit(), a noreturn function. However, clang does not know that ksft_exit_fail_msg() will call exit() at the point in the pipeline that the warning is emitted because inlining has not occurred, so it assumes control flow will resume normally after ksft_exit_fail_msg() is called. Make it clear to clang that all of the functions that call exit() unconditionally in kselftest.h are noreturn transitively by marking them explicitly with '__attribute__((__noreturn__))', which clears up the warning above and any future warnings that may appear for the same reason.

BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()
require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export.LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
