This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled gpu: drm: amd: amdgpu: amdgpu_i2c: fix possible uninitialized-variable access in amdgpu_i2c_router_select_ddc_port() to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: gpu-drm-amd-amdgpu-amdgpu_i2c-fix-possible-uninitial.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 2e1b6d7cf5b1c534a5e26c0f6ce823fd8ebb2939 Author: Tuo Li <islituo@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Aug 11 04:34:58 2021 -0700 gpu: drm: amd: amdgpu: amdgpu_i2c: fix possible uninitialized-variable access in amdgpu_i2c_router_select_ddc_port() [ Upstream commit a211260c34cfadc6068fece8c9e99e0fe1e2a2b6 ] The variable val is declared without initialization, and its address is passed to amdgpu_i2c_get_byte(). In this function, the value of val is accessed in: DRM_DEBUG("i2c 0x%02x 0x%02x read failed\n", addr, *val); Also, when amdgpu_i2c_get_byte() returns, val may remain uninitialized, but it is accessed in: val &= ~amdgpu_connector->router.ddc_mux_control_pin; To fix this possible uninitialized-variable access, initialize val to 0 in amdgpu_i2c_router_select_ddc_port().
