6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ricardo Ribalda <ribalda@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 17d1316de0d7dc1bdc5d6e3ad4efd30a9bf1a381 ] Because the size passed to copy_from_user() cannot be known beforehand, it needs to be checked during runtime with check_object_size. That makes gcc believe that the content of sbuf can be used before init. Fix: ./include/linux/thread_info.h:215:17: warning: ‘sbuf’ may be used uninitialized [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] Signed-off-by: Ricardo Ribalda <ribalda@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil-cisco@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/media/dvb-core/dvbdev.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/media/dvb-core/dvbdev.c b/drivers/media/dvb-core/dvbdev.c index aefee2277254d..04b7ce479fc38 100644 --- a/drivers/media/dvb-core/dvbdev.c +++ b/drivers/media/dvb-core/dvbdev.c @@ -964,7 +964,7 @@ int dvb_usercopy(struct file *file, int (*func)(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, void *arg)) { - char sbuf[128]; + char sbuf[128] = {}; void *mbuf = NULL; void *parg = NULL; int err = -EINVAL; -- 2.43.0
