The local variable "r" will be set to an appropriate value a bit later.
Thus omit the explicit initialisation at the beginning.

The kfree() function was called in one case by the crypt_iv_essiv_ctr()
function during error handling even if the passed variable "salt"
contained a null pointer.
* Adjust a jump target according to the Linux coding style convention.
* Delete this function call and a condition check which became unnecessary
with this refactoring.

"show_warning" is better than "error" when the net result of the goto
is that the function returns -EINVAL?!?
Please give it up with these drive-by shooting of auto-generated
patches. You're just embarassing yourself.

I got such an impression.

Do other identifiers fit better for the desired description of "what" and "why"
by jump labels?
> Please give it up with these drive-by shooting of auto-generated patches.
This update step was not auto-generated.
There are further change possibilities where special analysis tools
can help in the corresponding software development.
> You're just embarassing yourself.
Do you find any of my update suggestions worth for further considerations?

This is obvious from the corresponding commit "add some more error handling guidelines" (ea04036032edda6f771c1381d03832d2ed0f6c31 on 2014-12-02). > I just said that it's a good idea to think about label names I agree also to such a desire. > instead of using GW-BASIC style numbered labels, Is this kind of wording another weakness in the discussed document?

If you continue discussing after that point, then you make a clear statement that it isn't an accident. You are deliberately wasting their time. A lot of people already know this. But you're right that it would be useful to make it even clearer. Maybe you could add a note about it to each patch? Something along "I will not listen. I will not change. Nothing you tell me will ever make it worth your time to do so"? Just an idea... Bjørn

I hope that most of my software development activities are not "an accident". Is the intent for any update suggestion (like the renaming of a jump label in this case) reasonable to some degree? > You are deliberately wasting their time. I imagine that I do not really try to "waste" others time. But I am trying also to change some "things". There are circumstances when these contributions are interpreted as "wasted efforts". Is the change acceptance usually higher for other update patterns? > Something along "I will not listen. I am listening while my responses might not fit to your current expectations. > I will not change. I have got also some personal change opportunities. > Nothing you tell me will ever make it worth your time to do so"? While you can be so clear about a rejection for this software module at the moment, other contributors showed occasionally more positive information. Regards, Markus

I don't like out labels, but that's my opinion. There is nothing in CodingStyle which says you can't do it. regards, dan carpenter

> I don't like out labels, but that's my opinion. Thanks for this acknowledgement that you have still got a special opinion about such an identifier. > There is nothing in CodingStyle which says you can't do it. Does the terse description there try to suggest also to choose better identifiers for source code places? Does the meaning of such a coding style specification include also the selection of a more pleasing identifier than "error" for this software module? Regards, Markus
