Subject: [PATCH] target/i386/kvm: Silence warning from Valgrind about uninitialized bytes
Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2019 09:47:38 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190924074738.13104-1-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)
When I run QEMU with KVM under Valgrind, I currently get this warning:
Syscall param ioctl(generic) points to uninitialised byte(s)
at 0x95BA45B: ioctl (in /usr/lib64/libc-2.28.so)
by 0x429DC3: kvm_ioctl (kvm-all.c:2365)

by 0x498435: pc_new_cpu (pc.c:1549)
by 0x49C67D: pc_cpus_init (pc.c:1681)
Address 0x1ffeffee74 is on thread 1's stack
in frame #2, created by kvm_arch_get_supported_msr_feature (kvm.c:445)
It's harmless, but a little bit annoying, so silence it by properly
initializing the whole structure with zeroes.
