Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ixgbe: fix icc compile error
Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2016 17:45:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1458755158-16145-1-git-send-email-ferruh.yigit@intel.com> (raw)

Fixes: 06554d381d97 ("ixgbe: speed up non-vector Tx")

icc (icc (ICC) 16.0.1 20151021) is generating following compile error:
"
  CC ixgbe_rxtx.o
  .../drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c(153): error #3656: variable
  "free" may be used before its value is set
                      (nb_free > 0 && m->pool != free[0]->pool)) {
			                         ^
"

Indeed this is a false positive and code is correct.
"nb_free" check prevents the free[] access before its value set.

But the patch is just for compiler to remove compiler error.
