Hi, I come across this code: http://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/scsi/scsi_netlink.c#L128 other fields such as .cbmutex, .bind, etc are not initialized. Since the object =cfg= is of automatic storage, I wonder how the kernel tells if a field is initialized or its value is just some random bits on the stack? -- Best, Shiyao _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
