The analyzer's constraint handling doesn't handle this very well at the mom= ent. For example: extern void __analyzer_dump_path (void); long __attribute__((noinline)) PTR_ERR(const void *ptr) { return (long)ptr; } _Bool __attribute__((noinline)) IS_ERR(const void *ptr) { return (unsigned long)(void *)((unsigned long)ptr) >=3D (unsigned long)-4= 095; } long __attribute__((noinline)) test(void *ptr) { if (IS_ERR(ptr)) { int err =3D PTR_ERR(ptr); if (!err) __analyzer_dump_path (); // BUG: shouldn't get here } } In the above -analyzer erroneously considers there to be a feasible executi= on path in which IS_ERR(ptr) and PTR_ERR(err) =3D=3D 0. (minimized from a false positive in ipc/shm.c)=
