Error: FORWARD_NULL:
|
|
cpus cannot be NULL without fp also being NULL
|
|
the very next 'if (!fp)' ensures cpus will be allocated
|

my_category: avoidable_false_positive

|
|
top.c:1807: var_deref_op: Dereferencing null variable "cpus".
|
|
|
|
Error: OVERRUN_STATIC:
|
|
This "error" is centered around the following code:
|
|
f = w->pflgsall[i + w->begpflg];
|
|
w->procflgs[i] = f;
|
|
#ifndef USE_X_COLHDR
|
|
if (P_MAXPFLGS < f) continue;
|
|
#endif
|
|
h = Fieldstab[f].head;
|
|
|
|
The enum P_MAXPFLGS is strictly a fencepost and can *never* appear in the arrays pflgsall or procflgs.
|
|
Thus it (39th element) cannot be used in referencing Fieldstab.
|
|
However, two enums of higher value (X_XON=40 and X_XOF=41) *can* appear in those arrays.
|
|
But the test against the fencepost ensures that those two enums are *never* used in referencing Fieldstab.
|
|
|
|
When the analyzer sees the conditional using '<' and not '<=' it reports a false positive.
|
|
|
|
i'm tired of explaining this so the program was changed to accommodate the tool's deficiency
