[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.1 03/93] btrfs: zlib: zero-initialize zlib workspace

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

 



From: Alexander Potapenko <glider@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit eadd7deca0ad8a83edb2b894d8326c78e78635d6 upstream.

KMSAN reports uses of uninitialized memory in zlib's longest_match()
called on memory originating from zlib_alloc_workspace().
This issue is known by zlib maintainers and is claimed to be harmless,
but to be on the safe side we'd better initialize the memory.
