From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> resp.reserved has not been initialized and so the copy_to_user (via ib_copy_to_udata) is copying uninitialized data from the stack back to user space which is a potential information leak. Fix this by initializing all of resp to zero. V2: Initialize all of the struct rather than just resp.reserved as suggested by Leon Romanovsky.
