[PATCH 4.19 072/639] net: always initialize pagedlen

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jan 24 2020 - 06:02:59 EST


From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit aba36930a35e7f1fe1319b203f25c05d6c119936 ]

In ip packet generation, pagedlen is initialized for each skb at the
start of the loop in __ip(6)_append_data, before label alloc_new_skb.

Depending on compiler options, code can be generated that jumps to
this label, triggering use of an an uninitialized variable.

In practice, at -O2, the generated code moves the initialization below
the label. But the code should not rely on that for correctness.

Fixes: 15e36f5b8e98 ("udp: paged allocation with gso")
