[PATCH 6.1 175/195] netfilter: nf_tables: use kzalloc for hook allocation

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

 



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

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

From: Florian Westphal <fw@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 195e5f88c2e48330ba5483e0bad2de3b3fad484f ]

KMSAN reports unitialized variable when registering the hook,
   reg->hook_ops_type == NF_HOOK_OP_BPF)
        ~~~~~~~~~~~ undefined

This is a small structure, just use kzalloc to make sure this
won't happen again when new fields get added to nf_hook_ops.

Fixes: 7b4b2fa37587 ("netfilter: annotate nf_tables base hook ops")
