Although the old code was technically correct, this was accidental
|
|
|
e63663 |
and it understandably confused Coverity. Reported by Ondrej Dubaj in:

* lib/utimens.c (update_timespec): Change arg type from ‘struct
|
|
|
e63663 |
timespec *[2]’ (pointer to array of 2 pointers to timespecs) to
|
|
|
e63663 |
‘struct timespec **’ (pointer to pointer to the first timespec in
|
|
|
e63663 |
an array of 2 timespecs). Although the old code happened to be
|
|
|
e63663 |
technically correct, it was misleading and confused Coverity.
|
|
|
e63663 |
And though the type ‘struct timespec (**)[2]’ (pointer to pointer
|
|
|
e63663 |
to array of 2 timespecs) would perhaps be more technically
|
|
|
e63663 |
correct, it would be almost as confusing and would require changes
|
|
|
e63663 |
elsewhere in this file; let’s quit while we’re ahead.
