clang correctly points out a code path that would lead to an uninitialized variable use: security/selinux/netlabel.c:310:6: error: variable 'addr' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized] if (ip_hdr(skb)->version == 4) { ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ security/selinux/netlabel.c:322:40: note: uninitialized use occurs here rc = netlbl_conn_setattr(ep->base.sk, addr, &secattr); ^~~~ security/selinux/netlabel.c:310:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always true if (ip_hdr(skb)->version == 4) { ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ security/selinux/netlabel.c:291:23: note: initialize the variable 'addr' to silence this warning struct sockaddr *addr; ^ = NULL This is probably harmless since we should not see ipv6 packets of CONFIG_IPV6 is disabled, but it's better to rearrange the code so this cannot happen.
