This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled selftest: net: Assert on a proper value in so_incoming_cpu.c. to the 6.4-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: selftest-net-assert-on-a-proper-value-in-so_incoming.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit c85aa69ea9cd8b11739fd8de27221dbf8a337568 Author: Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jul 31 11:15:53 2023 -0700 selftest: net: Assert on a proper value in so_incoming_cpu.c. [ Upstream commit 3ff1617450eceb290ac17120fc172815e09a93cf ] Dan Carpenter reported an error spotted by Smatch. ./tools/testing/selftests/net/so_incoming_cpu.c:163 create_clients() error: uninitialized symbol 'ret'. The returned value of sched_setaffinity() should be checked with ASSERT_EQ(), but the value was not saved in a proper variable, resulting in an error above. Let's save the returned value of with sched_setaffinity(). Fixes: 6df96146b202 ("selftest: Add test for SO_INCOMING_CPU.")
