Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] hw/vfio-user: fix use of uninitialized variable
Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2025 07:52:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250715055246.422834-5-john.levon@nutanix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250715055246.422834-1-john.levon@nutanix.com>

Coverity reported:

CID 1611805:         Uninitialized variables

in vfio_user_dma_map(). This can occur in the happy path when
->async_ops was not set; as this doesn't typically happen, it wasn't
caught during testing.

Align both map and unmap implementations to initialize ret the same way
to resolve this.

Resolves: Coverity CID 1611805
Fixes: 18e899e6 ("vfio-user: implement VFIO_USER_DMA_MAP/UNMAP")
Reported-by: Cédric Le Goater <clg@redhat.com>
