[PATCH 6.10 132/184] media: v4l2-cci: Always assign *val

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

 



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

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

From: Sakari Ailus <sakari.ailus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 7417b1b1f36cc214dc458e717278a27a912d3b51 ]

Always assign *val to 0 in cci_read(). This has the benefit of not
requiring initialisation of the variables data is read to using
cci_read(). Once smatch is fixed, it could catch the use of uninitialised
reads.
