4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> commit 3f20efba41916ee17ce82f0fdd02581ada2872b2 upstream. ip_vs_fill_iph_skb_off() may not find an IP header, and gcc has determined that ip_vs_sip_fill_param() then incorrectly accesses the protocol fields: net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_pe_sip.c: In function 'ip_vs_sip_fill_param': net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_pe_sip.c:76:5: error: 'iph.protocol' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] if (iph.protocol != IPPROTO_UDP) ^ net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_pe_sip.c:81:10: error: 'iph.len' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized] dataoff = iph.len + sizeof(struct udphdr); ^ This adds a check for the ip_vs_fill_iph_skb_off() return code before looking at the ip header data returned from it.
