[PATCH v2 net] nexthop: fix uninitialized variable in nla_put_nh_group_stats()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The "*hw_stats_used" value needs to be set on the success paths to prevent
an uninitialized variable bug in the caller, nla_put_nh_group_stats().

Fixes: 5072ae00aea4 ("net: nexthop: Expose nexthop group HW stats to user space")

v2: Set the variable in nh_grp_hw_stats_update() instead of
    nla_put_nh_group_stats().
