Subject: [RESEND PATCH 2/2] audit: uninitialize variable audit_sig_sid
Date: Mon, 3 Aug 2020 13:34:39 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200803123439.83400-3-jbi.octave@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200803123439.83400-1-jbi.octave@gmail.com>
Checkpatch tool reports
"ERROR: do not initialise globals/statics to 0"
To fix this, audit_sig_sid is uninitialized
As this is stored in the .bss section,
the compiler can initialize the variable automatically.
