Subject: [PATCH] rtnetlink: fix uninitialized variable
Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2018 08:43:14 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180717134314.GA31127@embeddedor.com> (raw)

Currently, there are execution paths in which variable err is
returned without being properly initialized previously:

1417        if (rtnl_xdp_report_one(skb, dev, &prog_id, &mode, XDP_ATTACHED_SKB,
1418                                IFLA_XDP_SKB_PROG_ID, rtnl_xdp_prog_skb))
1419                goto err_cancel;
1420        if (rtnl_xdp_report_one(skb, dev, &prog_id, &mode, XDP_ATTACHED_DRV,
1421                                IFLA_XDP_DRV_PROG_ID, rtnl_xdp_prog_drv))
1422                goto err_cancel;
1423        if (rtnl_xdp_report_one(skb, dev, &prog_id, &mode, XDP_ATTACHED_HW,
1424                                IFLA_XDP_HW_PROG_ID, rtnl_xdp_prog_hw))
1425                goto err_cancel;

Fix this by initializing variable err to -EMSGSIZE.
