Okay, not that it helps much because the implementation of guard() and scoped_guard() is dramatically different. > It seems to be a > limitation of sparse in that its not correctly identifying the guard > will be unlocked on the return perhaps? It's odd because we'd have those warnings all over the place if it would be general thing for sparse to not understand how guard() works. Maybe sparse people have some idea what's so special here? To give context to sparse people, this patch triggers two false positives in sparse: https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/20250522015350.471070-6-derekjohn.clark@xxxxxxxxx/ $ make C=2 drivers/platform/x86/lenovo-wmi-gamezone.o CHECK scripts/mod/empty.c CALL scripts/checksyscalls.sh DESCEND objtool INSTALL libsubcmd_headers CHECK drivers/platform/x86/lenovo-wmi-gamezone.c drivers/platform/x86/lenovo-wmi-gamezone.c:155:12: warning: context imbalance in 'lwmi_gz_profile_get' - different lock contexts for basic block drivers/platform/x86/lenovo-wmi-gamezone.c:206:12: warning: context imbalance in 'lwmi_gz_profile_set' - different lock contexts for basic block https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/tree/drivers/platform/x86/lenovo-wmi-gamezone.c?h=review-ilpo-next#n190 (That code link is just for convinience, it's not a perma one, I'll be overwriting that branch eventually once the merge window is over, if not sooner.) > In any case, if you're okay > with a scoped guard here (matches both other invocations) I'll send it > up.
