Subject: [PATCH] net: avoid uninitialized variable
Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2016 11:56:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1477540569-12199-1-git-send-email-zhongjiang@huawei.com> (raw)

From: zhong jiang <zhongjiang@huawei.com>

when I compiler the newest kernel, I hit the following error with
Werror=may-uninitalized.

net/core/flow_dissector.c: In function ?._skb_flow_dissect?
include/uapi/linux/swab.h:100:46: error: ?.lan?.may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
net/core/flow_dissector.c:248:26: note: ?.lan?.was declared here

This adds an additional check for proto to explicitly tell the compiler
that vlan pointer have the correct value before it is used.
