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.
Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1471831 ("Uninitialized scalar variable")
Fixes: a25717d2b604 ("xdp: support simultaneous driver and hw XDP attachment")
