Subject: [PATCH net-next] openvswitch: Initialize unmasked key and uid len
Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2015 09:56:24 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1423158984-1674-1-git-send-email-pshelar@nicira.com> (raw)
Flow alloc needs to initialize unmasked key pointer. Otherwise
it can crash kernel trying to free random unmasked-key pointer.
