The patch titled audit: fix audit_filter_user_rules() initialization bug has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is audit-fix-audit_filter_user_rules-initialization-bug.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: audit: fix audit_filter_user_rules() initialization bug From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx> gcc emits this warning: kernel/auditfilter.c: In function 'audit_filter_user': kernel/auditfilter.c:1611: warning: 'state' is used uninitialized in this function I tend to agree with gcc - there are a couple of plausible exit paths from audit_filter_user_rules() where it does not set 'state', keeping the variable uninitialized. For example if a filter rule has an AUDIT_POSSIBLE action. Initialize to 'wont audit'. Fix whitespace damage too.
