Subject: [PATCH 4.4 36/93] MIPS: uprobes: fix use of uninitialised variable
Date: Thu, 6 Oct 2016 10:29:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161006074732.655848140@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20161006074731.150212126@linuxfoundation.org>
4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Marcin Nowakowski <marcin.nowakowski@imgtec.com>
commit ca86c9ef2b322ebf24772009fdea037688cbdac1 upstream.
arch_uprobe_pre_xol needs to emulate a branch if a branch instruction
has been replaced with a breakpoint, but in fact an uninitialised local
variable was passed to the emulator routine instead of the original
instruction
