Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mt76: mt7996: Initialize hdr before passing to skb_put_data()
Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2025 15:33:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250715-mt7996-fix-uninit-const-pointer-v1-1-b5d8d11d7b78@kernel.org> (raw)

A new warning in clang [1] points out a couple of places where a hdr
variable is not initialized then passed along to skb_put_data().

  drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt7996/mcu.c:1894:21: warning: variable 'hdr' is uninitialized when passed as a const pointer argument here [-Wuninitialized-const-pointer]
   1894 |         skb_put_data(skb, &hdr, sizeof(hdr));
        |                            ^~~
  drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/mt7996/mcu.c:3386:21: warning: variable 'hdr' is uninitialized when passed as a const pointer argument here [-Wuninitialized-const-pointer]
   3386 |         skb_put_data(skb, &hdr, sizeof(hdr));
        |                            ^~~

Zero initialize these headers as done in other places in the driver when
there is nothing stored in the header.
