Re: KMSAN: uninit-value in batadv_hard_if_event

Hi,

not sure whether this is now a bug in batman-adv or in the rtl8150 driver. See 
my comments inline.

The line in batman-adv is (batadv_check_known_mac_addr):

		if (!batadv_compare_eth(hard_iface->net_dev->dev_addr,
					net_dev->dev_addr))

So it goes through the list of ethernet interfaces (which are currently 
attached to a batadv interface) and compares it with the new device's MAC 
address. And it seems like the new device doesn't have the mac address part 
initialized yet.

Is this allowed in NETDEV_REGISTER/NETDEV_POST_TYPE_CHANGE?

This looks like it should store the mac address at this point.

    static inline void set_ethernet_addr(rtl8150_t * dev)
    {
    	u8 node_id[6];
    
    	get_registers(dev, IDR, sizeof(node_id), node_id);
    	memcpy(dev->netdev->dev_addr, node_id, sizeof(node_id));
    }

But it seems more like get_registers failed and the uninitialized was still 
copied to the mac address. Thus causing the KMSAN error in batman-adv.

Is this interpretation of the KMSAN output correct or do I miss something?

Kind regards,
	Sven
