[PATCH] reftable: fix some sparse warnings

Hi Han-Wen Nienhuys,

If you need to re-roll your 'hn/reftable' branch, could you please squash this
into the relevant patches.

This patch is based on top of 'seen' and removes 20 sparse warnings (19 of the
"symbol 'whatever' was not declared. Should it be static?" type and a single
"Using plain integer as NULL pointer").

However, this branch also adds many symbols to the output of my 'static-check.pl'
script (this patch actually removes 19 of those symbols :) ).

Looking at the first such symbol:

  $ git grep -n block_writer_register_restart
  reftable/block.c:40:int block_writer_register_restart(struct block_writer *w, int n, int restart,
  reftable/block.c:93:    if (block_writer_register_restart(w, start.len - out.len, is_restart,
  reftable/block.c:105:int block_writer_register_restart(struct block_writer *w, int n, int is_restart,
  $ 

... it looks like you forward declare the function on line 40, use it in line 93
and define it in line 105, all in the single 'block.c' source file. This would
suggest that this symbol is local to this file and should be marked as 'static'.
(Also, unless you have mutually recursive functions, I would avoid the need to
forward declare this function).

Just for your information, you may want to look at the following 27 symbols:

  $ diff nsc ssc1
  ...
  > reftable/block.o	- block_writer_register_restart
  > reftable/merged.o	- merged_table_seek_record
  > reftable/merged.o	- reftable_merged_table_hash_id
  > reftable/merged.o	- reftable_merged_table_max_update_index
  > reftable/merged.o	- reftable_merged_table_min_update_index
  > reftable/merged.o	- reftable_merged_table_seek_log_at
  > reftable/pq.o	- pq_less
  > reftable/publicbasics.o	- reftable_error_to_errno
  > reftable/publicbasics.o	- reftable_set_alloc
  > reftable/reader.o	- reftable_reader_seek_log_at
  > reftable/record.o	- reftable_record_yield
  > reftable/record.o	- reftable_ref_record_vtable
  > reftable/refname.o	- modification_has_ref
  > reftable/refname.o	- modification_has_ref_with_prefix
  > reftable/refname.o	- validate_refname
  > reftable/stack.o	- reftable_addition_close
  > reftable/stack.o	- reftable_stack_auto_compact
  > reftable/stack.o	- reftable_stack_reload_maybe_reuse
  > reftable/stack.o	- stack_check_addition
  > reftable/stack.o	- stack_try_add
  > reftable/stack.o	- stack_write_compact
  > reftable/test_framework.o	- new_test_case
  > reftable/writer.o	- reftable_writer_add_logs
  > reftable/writer.o	- reftable_writer_add_refs
  > reftable/writer.o	- writer_clear_index
  > reftable/writer.o	- writer_finish_public_section
  > reftable/writer.o	- writer_flush_block
  ...
  $ 

To be clear, all of the above symbols are defined, as an external symbol, in
the given object file, but not called/referenced outside of that file.

Thanks!

ATB,
Ramsay Jones

Thanks for the heads-up. I fixed some of these issues in the source at
google/reftable. I've seen a Helped-By footer used to acknowledge
these types of contributions, but I'm not sure on which of the 13
commits I should put that; suggestions?

Could you tell me how I can run these checks myself?

These functions are part of the public API. We'll need to get the
reftable glue code into seen. Perhaps some need unittest coverage too.

I will leave you to decide, but I didn't actually do much (sparse
did most of the heavy lifting)! ;-)

  $ make sparse

You will need to install a suitably new version of sparse, of course.
I believe (but don't quote me) that debian testing has a suitable
version based on the 'maint-v0.6.2' branch. ('git describe maint-v0.6.2'
shows that it has four commits on top of the last official release
version: v0.6.2-4-gb47eba20). Having said that, v0.6.2 should also be
fine (I build from source, so have version v0.6.2-201-g24bdaac6).

[for more sparse info, see: https://sparse.docs.kernel.org]

So, do I take it that the other 18 symbols are now marked 'static'?

[you would need 'static-check.pl' to catch symbols like the above].
