Subject: [PATCH 3/3] xfs: zero allocation_args on the kernel stack
Date: Wed, 19 Sep 2012 11:31:36 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120919163145.587098223@sgi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20120919163133.097340199@sgi.com

[-- Attachment #1: 3-3-xfs-zero_allocation_args.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1368 bytes --]

The allocation argument structures is created on the kernel stack space. This
patch makes sure the userdata variable is always initialized.

The better solution is always memset to 0 or "= { 0 }" the xfs_alloc_arg
and xfs_bmalloca structures. I believe there will only be 4 places that need
this memset change.
