[PATCH] nfs: remove incorrect fallthrough label

[PATCH] nfs: remove incorrect fallthrough label

[Nick Desaulniers]

There is no case after the default from which to fallthrough to. Clang
will error in this case (unhelpfully without context, see link below)
and GCC will with -Wswitch-unreachable.

The previous commit should have just removed the comment.

My preference would be to convert the fallthrough
to a break here so if someone ever adds another
label after default: for any reason, the code would
still work as expected.

Actually, this is part of the work I plan to do to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough
for Clang: audit every place where we could use a break instead of a fallthrough.

I'm on vacation this week. So, I'll get back to this next week.

Nice, thanks Gustavo.

As part of that work, perhaps you could also find all the

	switch (<foo>) {
	[cases...]
		[code...];
		break;

	default:
		[code...]
		(no break)
	}

uawa where the last label/default block does _not_ have a break
statement and add one too.

Also see:  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91432

gcc does _not_ warn on

	switch (<foo>) {
	case BAR:
		[code];
		(no fallthrough)

	case BAZ:
		break;
	}

It might be good to add the appropriate fallthrough
for those case blocks too.

[PATCH v2] nfs: remove incorrect fallthrough label

[Nick Desaulniers]

There is no case after the default from which to fallthrough to. Clang
will error in this case (unhelpfully without context, see link below)
and GCC will with -Wswitch-unreachable.

The previous commit should have just replaced the comment with a break
statement.

If we consider implicit fallthrough to be a design mistake of C, then
all case statements should be terminated with one of the following
statements:
* break
* continue
* return
* __attribute__(__fallthrough__)
* goto (plz no)
* (call of function with __attribute__(__noreturn__))

Just fallthrough.  __attribute__((__fallthrough__)
is only used once in code for the #define.

And maybe add see: Documentation/process/deprecated.rst

> * goto (plz no)

goto is a valid style inside a switch/case label block.

There are more than 1500 of these goto <label> uses in the
kernel so the 'please no' here doesn't seem reasonable.

> * (call of function with __attribute__(__noreturn__))

I guess panic counts.  I count 11 of those.

Are there any other uses of functions with __noreturn
in switch/case label blocks?

If you look at global_noreturns in tools/objtool/check.c:
 145   static const char * const global_noreturns[] = {
 146     "__stack_chk_fail",
 147     "panic",
 148     "do_exit",
 149     "do_task_dead",

 156     "machine_real_restart",
 157     "rewind_stack_do_exit",
 158     "kunit_try_catch_throw",
 159   };

Whether they occur or not at the position you ask; I haven't checked.

Just fyi:

Other than the 11 instances of panic, I found only a
single use of any other function above in a switch/case:

drivers/pnp/pnpbios/core.c:163:			complete_and_exit(&unload_sem, 0);
		case PNP_SYSTEM_NOT_DOCKED:

Found with:

$ grep-2.5.4 -rP --include=*.[ch] -n '\b(?:__stack_chk_fail|panic|do_exit|do_task_dead|__module_put_and_exit|complete_and_exit|__reiserfs_panic|lbug_with_loc|fortify_panic|usercopy_abort|machine_real_restart|rewind_stack_do_exit|kunit_try_catch_throw)\s*(?:\([^\)]*\))?\s*;\s*(case\s+\w+|default)\s*:' *

As it's trivial and necessary, why not go through Linus directly?

Real reason why not:

the commit to be fixed is not in Linus' tree.

I can add this to my -next tree and queue it up for the next merge window.

I'm planning to take this patch through the NFS tree for 5.10 (along
with the patch that apparently causes the problem). I didn't think it
was urgent so I haven't gotten around to pushing it out yet, but I'll
do so in the next few hours.

FWIW NFS is quite widely used by CI systems so any build breaks with it
in -next have a pretty big knock on effect on testing, even beyond the
distruption people working on the build test side of things.
