The following patches added support for StandaloneMM using FF-A:
9da5ee116a ArmPkg: Allow FF-A calls to set memory region's attributes
0e43e02b9b ArmPkg: Allow FF-A calls to get memory region's attributes
However, in the error handling logic for the Get/Set Memory attributes,
the CLANG compiler reports that a status variable could be used without
initialisation. This issue is a false positive and is not seen with GCC.
The Get/Set Memory attributes operation is atomic and therefore an
FFA_INTERRUPT or FFA_SUCCESS response is not expected in response
to FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_REQ. So the remaining cases that could occur
are:
- the target sends FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_RESP with a success or
failure code.
or
- FFA_MSG_SEND_DIRECT_REQ transmission failure.
Therefore,
- reorder the error handling conditions such that it prevents the
uninitialised variable issue being flagged by CLANG.
- move the repetitive code to a static helper function and add
documentation at the appropriate places.
- fix error handling in functions that invoke GetMemoryPermissions().
