[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "tadeusz.struk@xxxxxxxxx" <tadeusz.struk@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 130ed5d105dde141e7fe60d5440aa53e0a84f13b ]

msg_iocb needs to be initialized on the recv/recvfrom path.
Otherwise afalg will wrongly interpret it as an async call.
