When building with -Wsometimes-uninitialized, Clang warns: drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_ptp.c:111:2: error: variable 'ns' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized] drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_ptp.c:111:2: error: variable 'ns' is used uninitialized whenever '&&' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized] Clang is concerned with the use of stmmac_do_void_callback (which stmmac_get_systime wraps), as it may fail to initialize these values if the if condition was ever false (meaning the callback doesn't exist). It's not wrong because the callback is what initializes ns. While it's unlikely that the callback is going to disappear at some point and make that condition false, we can easily avoid this warning by zero initializing the variable.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
