Subject: [PATCH] utimens: fix confusing arg type in internal func

Although the old code was technically correct, this was accidental
|
||
and it understandably confused Coverity. Reported by Ondrej Dubaj in:
|
||
https://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-tar/2021-04/msg00000.html
|
||
* lib/utimens.c (update_timespec): Change arg type from ‘struct
|
||
timespec *[2]’ (pointer to array of 2 pointers to timespecs) to
|
||
‘struct timespec **’ (pointer to pointer to the first timespec in
|
||
an array of 2 timespecs). Although the old code happened to be
|
||
technically correct, it was misleading and confused Coverity.
|
||
And though the type ‘struct timespec (**)[2]’ (pointer to pointer
|
||
to array of 2 timespecs) would perhaps be more technically
|
||
correct, it would be almost as confusing and would require changes
|
||
elsewhere in this file; let’s quit while we’re ahead.
