CID 202453 (#1 of 1): Wrong sizeof argument (SIZEOF_MISMATCH)suspicious_sizeof:
Passing argument user_data of type gconstpointer and argument (gsize)nargs * 8UL /* sizeof (gconstpointer) */ to function g_slice_free1 is suspicious.
Let's pass instead the "data" pointer. It's the same, but maybe that
avoids the warning.
(cherry picked from commit d76df4c139)
Coverity doesn't like us ignoring the return value, although
we really only care about the "p" output pointer.
Try casting the result to (void), maybe that silences Coverity.
(cherry picked from commit e6fa3ce2df)
get_word() only moves the "argument" pointer forward. It never sets it
to %NULL. Also, above we already dereference argument, so Coverity thinks
that this NULL check indicates a bug.
Drop it to silence Coverity.
(cherry picked from commit 4596d7793c)
Warned by coverity: we assert above that brfd is -1, so we must always
restore it to -1 in the error case.
Technically, not a problem because socket() is documented to return
only -1 on error already. Apparently coverity does not believe that.
(cherry picked from commit 5b9a848a82)
This confuses coverity. Just use MAX(). MAX() is usually not preferred
as it evaluates the arguments more than once. But in this case, it is of
course fine.
CID 202433 (#1 of 1): Unrecoverable parse warning (PARSE_ERROR)1.
expr_not_constant: expression must have a constant value
(cherry picked from commit 186d559d63)
Most of these functions did not ever return failure. The functions
were assertin that the input was valid (and then returned a special
value). But they did not fail under regular conditions.
Fix the gtk-doc for some of these to not claim to be able to fail.
For some (like nm_setting_vlan_add_priority_str() and
nm_setting_vlan_get_priority()), actually let them fail for valid
input (instead of asserting).
(cherry picked from commit b5793b74ca)
Coverity correctly points out that nm_setting_vlan_get_num_priorities() can return
a negative value (-1 on assertion). Handle that by using the right integer type.
(cherry picked from commit af4a41cc4c)
nl80211_alloc_msg() just allocates some memory, using glib's allocators.
Hence it cannot fail, and we don't need to check for that.
Drop the unnecessary %NULL checks.
(cherry picked from commit 990a7bee9d)
Usually we check the result of nla_nest_start(). Also, in most cases where this
function would return %NULL, it's an actual bug. That is, because our netlink
message is allocated with a large buffer, and in most cases we append there a well
known, small amount of data.
To make coverity happy, handle the case and assert.
(cherry picked from commit 243458836a)
This triggers a coverity warning because we above already
check that not all relevant keys are NULL together.
Work around warning by modifying the code.

- use nm_g_variant_unref_floating()
- rename _lldp_attr_take_str_ptr() to _lldp_attr_set_str_take().
The new name has the same "_lldp_attr_set_" prefix as other setters.
Also, with the previous name it is unclear why it takes a "str-ptr".
- setting the same attribute multiple times, ignores all but the first
value. Avoid cloning the string in that case, and explicitly choose
the set or take function.
