When usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist() returns with USB_STOR_XFER_ERROR, it
returns without writing to its parameter *act_len.
Further, the two callers of usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist():
usb_stor_bulk_srb() and
usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sg(),
use the passed variable partial without checking the return value. Hence,
the uninitialized value of partial is then used in the further execution
of those two functions.
Clang-analyzer detects this potential control and data flow and warns:
drivers/usb/storage/transport.c:469:40:
warning: The right operand of '-' is a garbage value
[clang-analyzer-core.UndefinedBinaryOperatorResult]
scsi_set_resid(srb, scsi_bufflen(srb) - partial);
^
drivers/usb/storage/transport.c:495:15:
warning: Assigned value is garbage or undefined
[clang-analyzer-core.uninitialized.Assign]
length_left -= partial;
^
When a transfer error occurs, the *act_len value is probably ignored by the
higher layers. But it won't hurt to set it to a valid number, just in case.
For the two early-return paths in usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist(), the
amount of data transferred is 0. So if act_len is not NULL, set *act_len
to 0 in those paths. That makes clang-analyzer happy.

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.
