Subject: [PATCH] tcp: Suppress new instance of cppcheck bug 14191
Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2025 10:30:54 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251210233054.1779309-1-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> (raw)
From: Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com>
ee9b2361d ("cppcheck: Suppress a buggy cppcheck warning") added a
a suppression for a cppchec bug, since filed (and fixed) in upstream
cppcheck as https://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/14191. 9139e60fd ("tcp:
Acknowledge everything if it looks like bulk traffic, not interactive")
introduced a new point which triggers the same cppcheck bug.
Add a suppression for the new instance. This is a revision of Laurent's
earlier patch, updating the comments to make the connection between the
two instances clear, and adding unmatchedSuppression so it doesn't cause
a bogus warning with unaffected cppcheck versions.
